Elgato's entry Wave keeps the two connections that matter: a USB-C port (USB 2.0, bus-powered at 5V/200mA) and — unlike several budget rivals — a real 3.5mm headphone jack for zero-latency monitoring. Tap-to-mute on top, 5/8-inch thread underneath with adapters for 3/8 and 1/4-inch mounts, and a braided USB-C to USB-A cable in the box.
