the headphones are not that good, from what I can tell from that build you are going to make videos and you will edit sound, so headphones that has a frequency response that looks like a ski slope is not that good. I assume that you also want to game with them, but they dont have any soundstage so they are bad for games like csgo. I would recomend that you look at the pinned post about headphones in the price range you have the money for.

It's a little imbalanced. You have all of this incredible mounting gear, but the microphone itself is a little lackluster. Then again that's subjective, although I'd recommend the Audio Technica AT2020 or the Blue Yeti PRO instead.

Furthermore, if you're going to be editing sound as more than a hobby, or want the best possible sound, then I'd recommend headphones with a more flat frequency response instead. The Sennheiser HD 598 cost the same, while the Sennheiser HD 558 are a fair bit cheaper. They're also open-back headphones, which will allow you to more accurately assess soundstage- the ATH M50x headphones are closed-back, and everything's going to sound like it's in a small room with you.

I will recommend going for Dynamic microphone instead of condenser, but it really depends what you want to do and how much you can spend.

 

Just keep in mind that Condenser microphones are really sensitive and can pick up almost everything in the background.

This is how the shock mount to a snowball looks with it installed. Please tell me how you are going to put that inside a normal shock mount
