My mic came in today and the cables inside were not soldered, is that how it should be?

It's a common problem with these, the solder job isn't the best on these. Once you resolder these they're pretty reliable. I don't ever complain about this cause its a sub $20 mic. A few fixes on these and they aren't that bad

Yes they are, and I think I know why you ask. One of mine was corroded when I pulled it out of wrapper. It really messed up one of my gigs because I assumed since it was brand new, it couldnt be the source of the sound problems I was having. After the gig, I unscrewed the cable ends and they just crumbled apart.So, really I cant recommend these cables.

You would have to cut one end off, unthread it, and you would not be able to but it back from what I can see. Then you are going to have to tether the replacement mic wire with ties. Best to look for an alternative or just get some velcro ties or equivalent to tether is so it will not accidentally move and add noise to a recording. I did this using a USB Blue Yeti for a while. You have a mound of XLR sitting on the desk unused. But since I have gone back to a XLR mic.

J. Jones, Sorry I didn't reply to this eariler.... but did you BUILD the computer yourself? If so did you attach the proper cable from the sound card to the video card to get the sound TO the video card? And if you did, DID you connect it properly? If you didn't build it yourself, did you crack open the case to see if the manufacturer installed thecable and did it properly, AND that it did not come loose in shipping? It's an internal cable, check your manuals. And check the cable itself if all else fails. It may be you've got a bad one.

I read that someone had that trouble. Search with this: "Samson GO MIC USB Condenser static or interference HELP!"

It's very likely that you have in your hands a faulty item. I recommend getting in contact with Logitech and having it replaced.There's also the possibility that your audio drivers or microphone connections are to blame, but I'd still go for the faulty product bit. Good luck!

We have had the same issue with this microphone. If you still have the packaging, send it back!

Definitely NOT normal. Mine came with the power cord and everything. Make sure you check the back of the speaker, there's an opening and the cord could be inside of it.

Inside the box is a pair of speakers and the power cords for them. That's it. Also if you get them I would suggest getting a pair of quarter inch to Mic cables to connect them.

No Idea, Product Defect? Mine are still sitting in my closet now. Got two sennheiser mics now and haven't look back.

Dear Robert, Greetings, Yes. The schematic is on the assembly instructions inside the folded Kit cardboard included with your kit. If you don't have it, then I will make a copy for you and send it to your email address. Let me know what it is and I will also let you know some facts and repairs to perform on it. The copper foil is unfortunately fragile and when soldering and mounting the mics especially, the copper traces where the pins mount will break the small spider web traces to the ground plane, etc. if you are not careful. The unit does work great! when finally assembled and "repaired". Unless you are real lucky, there will be at least one foil breakage. I have assembled at least 4 of these and there seems to be always one no matter how careful you are. Well, get back to me and I will send you a schematic and the assembly drawings if you don't have it. Be sure to include your email address. Jamie

No problem at all. Check the conection on the back. They are two holes and only one will be for the Mic.

Sounds defective :( mine came fully assembled and undamaged. I'd return it if I were you.

It looks like they used some corrosive flux when soldering the ends. There was only white powder where the solder should be. I supposes the cable could be cut back and new ends put on. It appeared to be good quality cable.

You need to make sure that the plastic covering the battery has been opened ans discarded. Also, be sure that the Off/On button on the mic is in the "on" position and properly plugged into the camera base.

My mic works fine, so I assume it has something to do with the connection or what you are plugging it into, try it out on someone else's computer
