- It features wireless real-time audio monitoring via Bluetooth
Publisher and gaming accessory manufacturer Nacon has revealed the RIG M2 Streamstar, a new gaming microphone in its RIG line of peripherals.
Billed as the first wired gaming microphone with an in-built Bluetooth audio gateway, it allows you to pair Bluetooth earbuds directly to the mic for real-time audio monitoring.
This could be particularly handy for creators who already own Bluetooth headphones (like many of the best gaming earbuds) and don’t want to have to pick up a wired pair. It also boasts compatibility with the aptX HD audio codec for hi-res 24-bit wireless audio.
The other features of the microphone are quite basic. It can capture high-definition 24-bit audio with a sampling rate of up to 192kHz. It’s designed for easy plug-and-play use, with no software required.
The overall design of the microphone is impressively compact, with a small included stand. It’s also compatible with boom arms.
The RIG M2 Streamstar is available now via Amazon for $129.99, a price that puts it in direct competition with some of the best microphones for streaming today.
