What would be the best microphone setup for around $200? The blue yeti looks nice, but it costs another $50 for a shock mount that fits, and needs a pretty beefy stand. The audio technica at2020 usb+ is $30 more, but can use a cheaper stand and shock mount. I would also be fine with going near the $250 mark if needed, but that isn't ideal.

I'd recommend a Blue Spark Digital.

For this kind of budget You might want to try getting an XLR mic and some sort of audio interface that will let you play with gain settings more thoroughly. Tweaking the gain can make the difference between picking up your voice perfectly and picking up too much background noise.
