The Auray BAI-2X is a two-section broadcast arm with internal springs and an integrated XLR cable. This versatile and sturdy broadcast arm is great for studio as well as home use. It's ideal for broadcast, voiceover, and podcasts.
The BAI-2X broadcast arm is designed with internal springs that provide a clean and sleek look. The internal balance springs are precision engineered to support and hold in place microphones of up to 5 lb / 2.27kg. The design also minimizes handling noise when re-positioning the arm. The broadcast arm features a standard 5/8"-27 microphone stud mount that is compatible with most shockmounts and microphone clips. The angle of the microphone stud mount can be adjusted and secured with the locking knob, and the angle is maintained when re-positioning the arm. This eliminates the need to readjust it every time the arm is moved. With an extension of up to 40 inches, and the ability to rotate the arm 360°, the BAI-2X allows for precise microphone placement.
The BAI-2X also features a heavy-duty combo mount that consists of a sturdy C-clamp and a heavy-metal desktop mount. The C-clamp is capable of fastening onto desktops up to 2.3" thick. The C-clamp's slim design minimizes the clearance needed to mount it between a desk and wall. The desktop mount detaches from the C-clamp and provides the option of permanent installation to a desktop with the mounting screws (included). A 14" riser is included for adding height to the broadcast arm in order to extend over computer or studio monitors.

Earthworks Icon Pro Reviews
Fantastic
Awesome sound, clear, natural, realistic. Note for others buying the broadcast arm bundle - the arm has a wider diameter than some arm wall mount brackets.
Incredible audio quality
I bought two of the Icon Pro mics when they first came out. I already owned an Earthworks SR314 which was my first Earthworks mic. It made a believer out of me. The build quality on the Icon Pro is consistent with every other Earthworks mic. Built like a tank out of milled stainless steel. Seems indestructible. But the quality of the audio is what will sell you on this mic. Stunningly accurate. You'll never sound better. I've used the SM7B for years along with other mics. This is the best sounding mic for voice work I've ever heard. I record into a Sound Devices MixPre-6 which has super quiet preamps. Perfect pairing. If you are looking for a broadcast, podcast, streaming or voiceover mic and $499 is in your budget range, don't think twice.
