Reviews “The AT2020 is built to the same standard as Audio-Technica’s more up-market microphones, and I certainly have no complaints about its subjective sound quality. Indeed, for some applications, it turns in better results than microphones costing several times its UK price” – Sound on Sound AT2020 Review. “The AT2020 delivers super audio … This is for people serious about audio quality” – IGN AT2020 Review. “As a low-cost versatile jack of all trades, the Audio Technica AT2020 excels. It’s built to last and produces balanced and clean recordings” – The Garageband Guide AT2020 Review. “A versatile mic with a frequency response that does well with EQ but also sounds crisp and even without it. Durable and heavy. Really does a phenomenal job of blocking out background noise, even without room treatment” – Home Studio Basics AT2020 Review.
