(More customer reviews)First thing to note is that even though they call it a Vocal Booth, there's no sound isolation. Sound is going to hit your mic from the top and bottom and you WILL have noise in your recordings. The most this thing can be used for is to kill reflections and slap echo, so depending on what you wanna do, you could be better off just buying a room tuner and selectively laying traps and acoustic foam on your own. And you probably could get purer vocal recordings by treating a closet for isolation and mic-ing it.
Quality foam not withstanding, the Max-Wall VB wasn't engineered very well. All they did was stick their acoustic foam on a stand that wasn't designed with support in mind. You're threading a single little pole through three massive slabs of acoustic foam, the thing can and will topple over easily. They give you a single clamp to attach to the bottom of the pole to use as a hard stop, but watch how gravity fights with you when you try to set your wall to the right height. To join the walls together, you have foam joints that connect like puzzle pieces to the end of the slabs. You will probably end up ripping the foam trying to get your 90 degree angle. And even though they give you four walls, there's no "door", which means if you attach all four walls together, only way inside the booth is by crawling underneath, which if you're like me, you'll say F that and remove the fourth wall and turn it into a roof. There. Now you have a little foam cave that absorbs sound.
