Amazon.com Product Description
The Sony F-V420 microphone is a perfect choice for vocalists with superior voice projection. The microphone comes with several features that make it a high-quality mic. The clear, natural sound reproduction comes from the Cannon connector, a high power Alnico magnet, OFC wire and a gold-plated UniMatch mini-plug. With the Alnico magnet, Sony has achieved a frequency response range of 80Hz to 13,000Hz; thus, the microphone is useful in both speech and vocal music recordings. Those working on stage with multiple microphones will appreciate the built-in on/off switch. The microphone is lightweight and compact, and with the long 9'8" cord the microphone has the ability to stray far away from the home component. To accommodate a wide range of component jacks, Sony has included a gold-plated UniMatch mini-plug with this microphone, allowing it to be used with all types of components. When searching for an affordable, comfortable and versatile microphone, the F-V420 should not be overlooked. What's in the Box

 Fragile Construction November 29, 2008
Arrived on time, and operational. Okay for Karaoke use, though not great.
Used it only for a few hours. Then an inquisitive adult-child decided to unscrew the the portion into which you speak from the handle upon which it was attached, and look inside...
It seems that the two parts easily unscrewed from each other. It is regrettable that there was some kind of a very thin (and sharp) aluminum ring (washer?) between the two parts, near the very thin wires that run from the switch (in the handle) to the microphone piece that was unscrewed from the handle. It is regrettable that the flimsy aluminum ring severed one of the two thin/fragile wires. Now the brand new microphone doesn't work. :(
Of course, it isn't Sony's fault that the adult-child treated the microphone as a science project. However, the world is full of adult-child nitwits; no doubt this has happened before. If Sony didn't intend for those two pieces to be separated from one another, they should have taken steps to idiot-proof the assembly, or at least provide a warning. :|
The only good news is that I don't have to deal with karaoke anymore. :)
 Works fine September 2, 2008
No complaints. This is my first experience buying recording equipment/microphones. I wanted an inexpensive microphone that works well and that is what I got. I use it mostly with the "Singing Coach" software in order to train my voice. I plan on using it for online karaoke as soon as I'm able to sing well enough to not embarrass myself.
Great Microphone July 17, 2008
Boy I was real surprised how heavy and sturdy this mic was. My kids have been doing karaoke with it all day and the sound is great. No hissing and it actually cut out my dog barking. I'm happy with my purchase!
I like it May 25, 2008
I cannot think of anything to complain about.
One thing, I wish it had is a velcro to collect or shorten the long cord when I'm not using it.
good product with short line January 13, 2008
the sounds quality is good. Nothing to complain. and the mini-plug is very useful as microphone for yor PC. However, the line is too short. Not very convenient.
