SPC Gear, the gaming label of the European manufacturer SilentiumPC, announces a fresh, bright colour variant of the popular SM950 streaming microphone kit. The new edition is inspired by the rare mineral white onyx, known for its exceptional durability and unique appearance. SPC Gear designed the Onyx White variants with this qualities in mind while offering directional (cardioid) characteristics, ensuring good dampening of unwanted ambient noise. High-quality components on the other hand, allow for a warm, radio-like sound. Being a Plug&Play microphone, the SM950 does not require installing any additional software and is ready to be used straight out of the box. The physical mute button is conveniently located on top of the microphone and provides visual cues when mutes. With the SM950 series, SPC Gear offers a prefect kit for every streamer, YouTuber and musician, seeking an affordable full-fledged recording setup for streaming of games on Twitch or YouTube or recording of podcasts and voiceovers.



Unique Design
The mineral Onyx is famous not only for its high durability but also because of its extraordinary look. The white variant, on the other hand, is scarce. Every part of the SM950 Onyx White and the accompanying accessories was designed with the white onyx in mind. This unique microphone looks excellent on any workstation and stands out thanks to its originality, and is a perfect match to the other peripherals from the Onyx White series.

Warm and crystal clear sound
SPC Gear has designed the SM950 Onyx White microphones with a focus on excellent recording quality and outstanding practicality. The cardioid collection pattern, which is praised by most users working with their voice - be it a musician, streamer or vlogger, allows effective elimination of unwanted background noises, resulting in authentic and crystal clear voice recording. The microphone captures a wide frequency range from 18 to 21.000 Hz while maintaining 135 dB sensitivity and sampling rate of 16 bit at 48 kHz.

Adjustable Arm

The SM950 Onyx White comes with an adjustable, sturdy arm, which can be easily mounted to the desk in seconds and holds the microphone right where it needs to be. The arm also deals with the annoyance of cable routing on the desk. It solves this problem elegantly, as the USB cable of the SM950 Onyx White is hidden inside the arm.

Premium Design with Mute Button
The SM950 Onyx White microphone is equipped with a mute button on top, allowing easy accessibility and instant muting without disrupting the game or conversation. Both the button and the microphone illuminate blue colour during regular operation and red when muted, giving users a clear indication of the current status.

Easy Installation
Installation of the microphone is as easy as it can get thanks to the Plug and Play support. After the microphone setup at the desk, users simply have to connect the microphone to the PC or Notebook using the supplied USB cable and then get down to action. There is no need for additional software and drivers, which significantly increases compatibility and reduces friction.

The new SPC Gear SM950 Onyx White streaming microphones are available from today.

that SPC logo is intrusive unless they are actually sponsoring a live stream.

I'm surprised they are allowed to use the name SPC on products as it is trade marked.

I guess PC accessories fall under the same trademark class as canned food products.
