Its pretty quiet and I don't know why. I tried plugging it all in different ports, but it was no use. I even boosting the microphone, but it sounded bad after that. I'm using a computer 600 watt power supply. I don't think it should sound any worst considering my friend is using raw input and it sounds better. I'm also speaking into the right side too. I'm also using a 48v phantom power. Here is where I bought the the mic and the phantom power.

Maybe I'm not understanding..... what specifically are you using to provide the 48V "phantom" power?
Your 600W PSU shouldn't be relevant (in this situation), as that can't (shouldn't?) be what you're using to provide power to the mic. The rails don't work, and there won't be a connection.

Without 48V power, the mic is extremely quiet, as per Amazon reviews:

And the appropriate (Neewer) adapter is $19.

Yeah sorry. I do have 48v phantom power and I'm pretty sure I have the appropriate cord for this. I just don't know what's going on. Here is what I bought. I'm not using the usb connection for this microphone though it wouldn't pick the mic up.
