Microphones
Shure SM7B— The podcast and vocal broadcast standard — holds its value unusually well on the used market.

Rode PodMic— Purpose-built podcast dynamic that undercuts the SM7B at a fraction of the price.
Sennheiser MD 421 II— Classic broadcast and tom mic — check the fragile clip, a common used-listing defect.

Headphones
Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro— Closed-back tracking standard; impedance version (32/80/250 ohm) affects used value.
