PS101 metal pop stopper 
by Ralph Camoran from Los Angeles,, April 2006

These are well made popper stoppers, but as the previous reviewer suggests, they do take some of the "top" off the sound getting to the mic. Not sure? Take the metal stopper and hold it near your ear. Things sound different coming thru from the other side, shouldn't but it does. Cloth ones sound the same. Try it.

A great pop stopper

This is a great addition to a mic locker. I use mine every day. It's definitely more durable than most pop stoppers. And its easier to clean. Does it color the sound less? I dunno. Panty hose poppers may cut a db off the highs. Maybe the metal has its own resonant probs. But that stuff is so minimal it all means nothing in the end. This is definitely a better stopper for hip hop (in fact, I bought it because the hip hop clients were popping my mics with the cloth stoppers). Only cons are that it can be dangerous if you bop it (it can cut a client because of the edges). And more important, it definitely will pick up on mic if the client bops it (you cannot usually hear a noise if a client bops a cloth one). Best bet for hip hop or screaming metal gods? I double up. Metal one towards mic, cloth one towards client. And if you think its taking away some of the hi end of the voice, that's what God made EQ for. At least the mic is safe. Trust me, If you get this stopper, you wont be sorry! Esp if you do hard singers.
