Gearank High Notes

• 2017.11: Highest Rated Microphone Pop Filter
• 2016.11: Highest Rated Microphone Pop Filter

Gearank Recommendation

The MPF-1 first appeared on our recommended list for Pop Filters from November 2016 until August 2019.

Then in August 2020 it had high enough ratings to go back on the list where it remained until being out-ranked in August 2022.

Overview

While the popularity and affordability of desktop USB mics have made home recording more accessible, some manufacturers didn't take compatibility with standard pop filters into account.

This is where Auphonix came in with their specially designed clamps that conveniently and securely attach to popular USB desktop mics like the Blue Yeti.

The Auphonix pop filter features a double mesh filter design and comes in a round shape that is 6" in diameter (also available in a smaller 4" version). It also features an adjustable gooseneck for precise and stable positioning.

If you're looking for a workhorse pop filter to improve your podcasting and home recordings, the Auphonix Pop Filter is a good option.
