I don't know what the fuck is going on with the Kiara audio settings argument but as an audio autist I will say this:
Kiara's mic sounds like a Shure sm7b, the mic every fucking streamer ever eventually gets because of "everyone has it so it must be good" mentality. And it is a good mic, very fucking good. It has a certain sound to it, it's a "darker" microphone meaning that YOU the owner need to brighten it up either by activating the high pass filter switch on the mic or adding filters in OBS/Goxlr. Failing to do so will keep the mic sounding slightly muddy if it's kept as-is out of the box. The microphone is infamously gain-hungry too which means you can make it sound like shit by continuously adding gain to it, I dunno if she has a a cloudlifter or something to make it have some more or if she's doing it with just the goxlr which in theory can drive the mic just fine and has plenty of gain.
But if anything, she would need to fiddle with filters. The interface isn't the problem and neither is the mic. If she has been repeatedly told to mess with filters, and still hasn't, then it's a lost cause and she will sound how she sounds forever. Kind of like how Kronii still doesn't have a limiter on her mic to limit how much she clips when she screams directly into the microphone.
If you're KFP and you care and you happen to own the same mic as her or something, try some filter settings yourself and screenshot them, then send a tweet to her to try them too. The only way to make sure a mic sounds right is by consistently testing or getting lucky and getting it to sound perfect right out of the box. The person with the best spoken word audio settings (and singing too, actually) in EN is probably Gura.
