Yes, I'd recommend this product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off, just this Mic has improved my podcasting like I never thought imaginable. The sound stage is right where it needs to be. It's very clear, and very nice to look at.
It has all of the features you would like in a podcasting microphone.
My main issue is the position button when you have it in the base. More than once I have tipped it over switching between pick up positions for guests. I often have only one hand free and I can't grip the base to stop it.
Besides that, it's everything I need!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using the original Quantum Stream model which is a really nice mic in a slightly smaller form factor. The QS Studio design makes some intelligent improvements, however, such a moving the cable connections to the rear instead of the underside, offering multiple "sound stage" style modes, and adding a sound level LED right onto the front button area. And with all of the essential features controllable via physical buttons, there is complete compatibility with Macs/macOS. But that said, I can't help but feel JBL is really overdue in investing in the creation of a version of the Quantum Engine or even a more general utility software by product type (similar to the separate JBL mobile apps they have for some of their headphones, speakers etc.) to bring a software control solution to the macOS platform for their gaming line of products (which their headsets and stand-alone mics fall under). This would really push JBL into the top tier, not only in product design and sound quality but in user experience. For me, it's the missing feature that leaves me honestly giving a 5 star quality product only 4 stars.

Yes, I'd recommend this product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There are a lot of great features concisely packed into this mic. First, the buttons are well placed and simplified. One touch sensitive button at the top for instant mic mute/unmute. A rotary+push button allows quick adjustment of mic gain, system volume, and balancing the priority of the two. The two ports on the back: a USB-c port to facilitate connection to compatible computer or gaming systems, and a 3.5mm audio output to headphones or other medium.
Windows users also have the option to install Quantum software which offers software alternative to the hardware controls, and a few extra tweaks for saving lighting profiles and other settings.
Now the true value, a button at the bottom of the mic switches between 4 microphone (polar) patterns: 1) Cardioid - Picks up audio directly from the front of the mic. This is ideal for individual podcast or monologue recording. 2) Omnidirectional - Picks up audio from all 360º around the mic. This is great for a group podcast where all participants are surrounding the microphone. 3) Stereo - This mode translates the left and right site of microphone audio into a stereo field, which works great for instruments and vocals that need record stereo width. 4) Bidirectional (also known as figure 8) picks up audio from the front and back of the mic. This mode is ideal for dialog between two people or performing a duet where each participant is on opposite sides of the mic. Most microphones on the market only offer 1 polar pickup pattern, so having 4 allows you to use one mic to achieve different goals as needed without swapping out.
Now on to the build quality. The chassis and base are metal and feel like professional hardware. There is a rubber footing under the baseplate for sturdy placement and vibration absorption. The base plate can be threaded off to reveal a standard microphone mount, allowing you to use your existing arms, goosenecks, tripods or other mounting gear.
Overall, the Quantum Stream Studio is a great value for content creators and gamers alike. If your recording environment needs change by the day, hour, or episode, the multi-pattern polar patterns is a huge benefit to minimizing your setup and breakdown time.

Yes, I'd recommend this product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This mic has some great practical features that can be accessed and utilized from the mic it self. There are 4 different settings for the mic, depending on how I use it. These can be changed from tapping the underside of the mic to switch from one to another without needing to go into the app. For video calls it works well without me having to lean right in front of it. I found the side tone to incoming audio ratio can also be changed on the volume knob which is very helpful. To mute it’s easy to just tap the top and the mic light turns Red. The cable that is provided is extra long so it can be used in a conference where the mic needs to be located farther away.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This microphone is really studio quality. The variety of pick up patterns make this truly a perfect mic for many situations. I have only used cardioid, but bi-directional, stereo & omnidirectional make it truly unique. The top to tap mute button on it is great for quick control. I think the RGB meter helps keep your attention for audio levels.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] JBL is listening to their customers and improved upon an already awesome microphone. The microphone is much more boom friendly since JBL moved the USB-C and headphone jacks from the bottom of the microphone to the rear of the microphone. The microphone is very user friendly and intuitive to use. The headphone and microphone is controlled by one knob on the front. The mute button is on top of the mic for easy access. Also the mic has four great functions depending on what you will be using the mic for such as podcasting, interviewing or a musician playing music. It's also a good looking mic. Would highly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Playing online games with my friends is always good to have a quality microphone. The JBL Quantum Stream Studio is an awesome option to get crisp sound during multiplayer sessions. Starting off with the audio quality it is very very good! My voice is very crisp and clear, buddies asked if I got a new mic/headset as soon as they heard my voice because it sounded a lot better than my old mic. The only drawback is that this microphone pics up everything, even my kid's tv from 2 rooms down. I game on PS5 and it took me about 3 minutes to figure out the correct settings for the microphone and headset to work together since the output and mic audio was being sent to one device only instead of the output to the headset and the mic from this new Quantum Stream Studio. To fix this I had to go to the PlayStation 5 settings, Sound, Audio Output, and TURN OFF "Switch Output Device Automatically". This was the only way I could make the audio work the way I wanted. The microphone provides a sturdy base that allow it to be tilted to fit your needs and also screw a mounting arm if you prefer. The mic comes with 4 different sound profiles and they are easy to toggle between them, just press the button at the bottom on the mic and the LED indicator will show you which profile you are selecting. The mute option is my favorite feature, just do a quick tap and hold to mute the mic and the LED around the device will change from green to red, letting you know the audio is muted. Their audio can also be muted directly from the PS5 mute button on the controller. Build quality feel very premium and the mic will look good with any type of set up. There are LEDs around the knob that will show you the mic and headphone levels so everything is very simple to understand. I'm super happy with this new product, keep up the good work!

Yes, I'd recommend this product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I started using this mic at my desktop PC for chatting with friends on Discord as well as for raiding in World of Warcraft. When I first switched to using this mic, people didn't recognize my voice. This was because it actually captured my voice properly and is distortion free, unlike my previous mic. I also really like how it indicates when it picks up sound with the light around the volume knob. This is very helpful and frees up screen space when streaming. The light is also helpful for knowing exactly when sounds are being picked up by the mic so you can keep unwanted sounds from being registered with the excellent capacitive touch mute button on the top of the mic. This microphone has great sensitivity and doesn't need to be directly in front of your face to pickup sound. I also love the options to switch between the different modes of the mic. You can switch from a solo speaker to being used to pick up all the instruments in a band with a quick tap of a button on the bottom of the mic. I highly recommend this mic!
