The read
What's actually worth knowing.
- This microphone requires 48V phantom power from an audio interface or mixer, so it won't work directly with a computer via USB like some other mics do.
- The cardioid pickup pattern focuses on sound in front of the mic while rejecting noise from the sides and back, which helps isolate your voice or instrument from room reflections.
- It handles loud sources well with a maximum SPL of 144 dB, making it versatile enough for both quiet vocals and louder instruments without distortion.
As of Aug 14, the Audio Technica AT2020 Condenser Studio Microphone is a good price at $130.90 — versus a $129.14 typical price and a $46.72 12-month low, based on Amazon's own price history.
Its price this year
A fair price — but not a real “sale.”
Sale check Amazon shows “18% off,” measured against a $160 “list price” it doesn't charge. Its usual price is $129 — real discount ≈ 0%.
The phantom Amazon has left this $160 “list price” untouched for 8 months — while the item actually sold for about $129. It's a fixed anchor, not a price it charges.
