Elgato Wave Mic Arm LP, Low Profile Microphone Stand & Boom, Adjustable, Desk-Mountable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It fits my setup so much better than any high profile arm, because i normally can't see past it, haha. This one is also great for putting away, so the setup becomes clean and bigger. I love the little mechanical slats with the magnets, it makes cable management easier for a noob like me. It fits perfect underneath my monitors.

Tightening this enough to support the weight of an SM7b causes the plastic to rub on itself hard enough to deteriorate to the point of not being able to support anything. I see shreds of plastic every day, and at this point the mic stand cannot be used. I have had it for approximately a month, and this began after a week. The overall quality is also quite poor, and there is a lot of play and movement at all the pivot points. The magnet latches are neat, but pop off if the cable moves. A small rotating pin to keep them securely in place would be welcomed. Grooves where the cable routes would be a welcome addition. The design is not necessarily bad, but for something that is marketed around its 'impeccable design', it misses the mark. Other than the glaring flaws that will make me throw it away if I cannot return or RMA it, I do like the concept of this mic arm a lot. With some revisions and fixes this could be fantastic and a welcome change to the usual design of boom-style mic arms.
