I use this arm for voiceovers/streaming, and it’s been a nice upgrade from my old boom arm. The low-profile style keeps everything below eye level, so my camera shot looks cleaner and my screen isn’t blocked. It supports my mic well, doesn’t drift during use, and the clamp grips my desk securely. Installation took me around 10 minutes. Build quality feels good—not premium-premium, but definitely reliable for everyday use. If you’re trying to improve desk space and keep your setup looking neat, this is a good pick. Read more
The Elgato Wave Mic Arm LP is exactly what I was looking for to clean up my desk setup. The low-profile design keeps the arm out of the camera frame while still putting the mic right where it needs to be. It looks sleek and professional without taking over the desk. Movement is smooth and quiet, and once positioned, it stays put. The build quality feels premium, with sturdy joints and strong tension that easily support a heavier mic. Installation was quick, and the cable management channels are a nice touch for keeping everything tidy. If you stream, work from home, or just want a clean, minimalist mic setup, this arm is absolutely worth it. Reliable, well designed, and built to last. Read more

Overall, this mic arm is durable, reliable, and highly practical, and it complements any desktop or gaming setup beautifully. Read more
I’ve tried a few mic arms, and this one is by far my favorite. The low-profile design is perfect for my setup, giving everything a clean, professional look. I have it mounted at the back of my desk, and it just seems to float in place. The built-in cable management keeps things tidy, and the range of motion makes it easy to swing out of the way when not in use. Build quality is excellent—sturdy, smooth, and reliable. Highly recommend! Read more
The Elgato Wave Mic Arm LP is great quality overall, especially at the price of $70-75 USD. The parts are (mostly) metal, the magnets of the cable covers are strong although the covers may excessively bend the cable, the tension system does the job, and the ratchet of the clamp has good ergonomics. Plus, the screw is versatile with camera support and a large customizable range of motion. The main flaw is that the clamp might not be able to support heavier microphones to the best of its ability. My microphone is from Shure and weighs around 500-600 grams according to their manual, a bit lighter than the industry standard SM7B at 760 grams. The boom arm drops a bit when setting the height of the second, so you have to account for that by raising it higher. The larger issue is that the clamp may slip gradually if you have the arm outward away from the table. My clamp's padding has been ripped on top and displaced on the bottom because of the gradual movement due to the microphone's weight. Again, the boom arm is satisfactory, but it's not the cleanest experience and would like to see the clamp avoid ripping and moving the padding due to the microphone's weight. I recommend this boom arm, overall. Read more
Bought this mic arm to clean up my desk. Switched from a traditional mic stand to this, and it's so much better! I have the mic arm clamped to the side of my desk. It stretches across the bottom of my second monitor so the mic sits below my camera when not in use. Then, when I need it, I can just pull it toward me, tip the mic up toward my face, and I'm ready to go. It's well made, and heavier than I expected, which is good. Attaching the mic and threading the mic cord through the arm was also easy. The top side of the arm pieces are magnetic, so you just take them off, stick the cord inside, and pop them back on — and the magnets are really strong. Overall the look is very clean. I did add one black zip tie at the top to keep the cord from ticking out. Over time, I have found that even though I tighten the arm to hold the position, it slowly starts to sag and I have to re-adjust and tighten it all again. But that's maybe once or twice a month.

I bought this arm to go along with my Rode NT-USB microphone (seen in the photo accompanying this review). It works fantastically, allowing me to position the mic wherever I want for recording or video calls to achieve perfect sound quality. It was easy to assemble and set up on my desk. The wire routing setup and wire cable channels are very cleverly designed. I have been using this for a couple of months now, and I can't think of anything I would change on this arm. It is very sturdy, and the ease of movement is perfect for a mic boom so it is only where you want it to be when you want it. Even though I am using it with the Rode mic, it can accommodate other mics with 1/4, 38, and 5/8 threads. Read more
