I bought a fake one on AliExpress and did not have any of these problems. I had mine modded with the Trace Audio Anser mod that adds 48v of phantom power. Basically turns into a SM7DB.
I just don't understand why anyone would want to buy a real Shure SM7B. For the price you can get far superior condenser microphones. I own a Sennheiser MKH 416 which is a 1000 dollar mic, but I also own a Rode NT1 and a Blue Bluebird which are mics that go for the same price as an SM7B, but are far superior. Even an AKG P420, which is a bit noisy, sounds far better than an SM7B. Let's face it, the SM7B is but a dynamic microphone. Now dynamic mics do have advantages. Although they don't pick up as much detail as the condenser mics, that may be an advantage if you record in untreated rooms or in a noisy neighbourhood. But the Shure SM57 is just as good as the SM7B, yet at a third of the price.
I know! I was very fortunate that I was presented a number of Fake SM7B videos on TH-cam that educated me. And like I mentioned in the video, returns are guaranteed on eBay now. Thank you for the comment!!! Eric.

I also just bought one! how's yours sound?
@@xaviersalsd4532 Mine sounds actually pretty good with the added mod.
Great video. I hit the thumbs up but it still shows zero! Just letting you know.
Easier way: Did it cost less than $400 (new)? If yes, then you bought a fake!
Yes!!! I got to admit I thought that I was so clever finding such a deal😂😂😂

Fantastic comments, @CptBerns Thank you for sharing!!!
Ah, be careful about that. There is definitely a subjective component to it.
@@andrewrice9383 Of course there is. Everything is subjective. There is no such thing as objectivity.
man it sucks that anyhting that is good these days its heavily replicated and sold as the real deal in attempt to scam people.
