Hi All,

I want a mic for around $100 for my pc and I was wondering which one you guys thought was better.

I have the AT2035, basically an upgraded AT2020. Fantastic microphone. You do need to note that the AT2020 is an XLR microphone, meaning you will also need to buy a USB audio interface and XLR cable. It also does not come with a stand. You might end up spending double the amount you would on the Blue Yeti.

The Blue Yeti is a plug-and-play microphone, with solid sound quality, and only requires an available USB port.
