I agree we should take better care of our sound quality. That being said I don't manage to get an idea what's worth it. Network quality is part of the equation. Macbook's microphones seem to sound pretty good. Shure SM7B looks great but it's 380€... How much better is the sound on your contacts' ears is what I'm wondering about. Any feedback/idea?

I have had numerous comments on my mic sound quality, so people certainly notice it and appreciate it! Is it worth 380€? I can't say. You'll also need an audio interface, cables, and probably a pre-amp, so the kit ADDS UP.

My own personal reflection is that I have no regrets and going semi-pro audio quality was the right choice for me. YMMV.
