PSA1+ Desk-mounted Broadcast Microphone Boom Arm

I've used quite a few, and this one blows everything out of the water. Noise- absolutely none. A very sensitive mic can barely pick anything up, regardless of how you move it. It also decreases any accidental hits on the table. Of course, it doesn't eliminate it, but no boom arm will. Fluidity - frictionless Functionality - Easy to set up. Can carry a pretty heavy mic. I tried everything from a Rode NT to a heavy Sennheiser mic. No problems. The ONLY thing I wish they'd improved is the limited angle if you're trying to push it back directly, in a straight line. But that's not how a mic should be used anyway, so it's not really an issue. The cable stowaway is fantastic. Build - doesn't get much better than this. It could have done without the huge Rode branding because that can get distracting if you're streaming or on an important call. Bottom line - If you've reached the point where you're doing very serious recordings for paid clients, you just cannot get better than this. It's well worth the high price. There's a reason it's listed as one of the best boom arms in the market.

Good and flexible to use but too much costly.

Best boom bar, no need or think about any other product from any other brand. Only thing, RODE must think little bit more about the thickness of the wooden planks used to make the Table in case of threaded desk insert. In my case, I had to use extra hard foam packings to make it to serve the purpose, though my table is made using very good quality hard wood.

I use 15 different types of desk mic arms but I really enjoy using the rode PSA1+ it is perfect for my work and all types of mics 🎤 Heavy what light easy to handle any angle move easily

Wonderful ! Great Quality and Study. Close your eyes and buy it !

Best for heavy condenser mics, highly flexible & durable

The boom arm looks premium and behaves the way you want it to. The black sleeves and the tautness of its joints are praise-worthy. I'm happy

It is expensive but this will last for as long as you want it to last!!

We have ordered and surprised friends with this gift. Easy to use and amazing quality. True to size

Professional-grade stability for the Shure SM7DB setup I'm using the PSA1+ with a Shure SM7DB microphone, and this boom arm handles the weight and positioning demands flawlessly. As someone who's not a professional but takes audio quality seriously, this boom arm delivers exactly what I needed for my home studio setup. Build Quality & Stability: The construction is absolutely solid - no flex, no drift, no gradual sagging over time. Once you position the SM7DB where you want it, it stays there. The springs and joints are clearly engineered to handle heavier microphones without compromise. This feels like equipment that will last for years of regular use. Positioning & Adjustability: The range of motion is excellent, allowing me to position the microphone exactly where I need it for optimal vocal pickup. The joints move smoothly but lock firmly into position. No fighting with the arm during recording sessions or worrying about it slowly creeping out of position. Compatibility Note: One small quirk - the twist-locking nut design can create clearance issues with some XLR connectors. In my case, I needed to add a Shure A26X extension bar to get proper XLR connection clearance with the SM7DB. This isn't really a fault of the PSA1+, more of a compatibility consideration when using certain microphone and cable combinations. Value & Reliability: This boom arm justifies its price point completely. The difference between a quality boom arm like this and cheaper alternatives becomes obvious immediately - no constant readjustments, no worrying about your expensive microphone taking a fall, just reliable performance day after day. Desktop Integration: The desk clamp is robust and doesn't damage surfaces while providing rock-solid mounting. Takes up minimal desk real estate while offering maximum positioning flexibility. Bottom Line: If you're investing in quality microphones like the SM7DB, don't skimp on the boom arm. The PSA1+ provides the stability and reliability that professional-grade microphones deserve. Highly recommended for: Anyone using heavier microphones, home studio setups, and users who want "set it and forget it" reliability from their boom arm.

Wygląda świetnie, działa świetnie.

Replaced my low quality arm with this and it's such a huge difference. Adjusting position is effortless and it just stays exactly where you put it. Nice cable management. Only negative is the huge ugly logo prints on the sleeve.

I never thought I’d fall in love with a collection of metal and springs, but here we are. The RØDE PSA1+ is the Rolls Royce of mic arms. My mic now hovers gracefully in front of me like it’s about to drop some Grammy-winning vocals, even though I mostly use it to sing to 2 people who listen to me (hi mother and dad). It moves like butter. Not like cheap margarine. Real, smooth, expensive butter. Silent, sturdy, and somehow makes me feel more professional than I actually am. Also, setup was so easy I didn’t even have to pretend to read the manual. It clamped onto my desk like it meant business, and hasn’t wobbled, squeaked, or sagged once. Can’t say the same for my posture. Is it overkill for a hobbyist? Probably. Will you feel cooler than you should while using it? Absolutely.
