Okay, I'll get to your point in a moment as I configured my Blue Yeti on
my Mac, the Mac recognised the Blue Yeti straight away as a "Sound
Device" so I just plugged my B&W P7's into the headphone output jack and
away I went.
So - if I configure this thing under Windows - why is it important to
configure the device not as a speaker? I doubt that even the controller
would let you configure to anything but 2 channel stereo and besides,
headphones plug into the output of the Blue Yeti.

I do agree though with the author of the article who put me onto the
Blue Yeti in the first place where he points out that you'll most
want to get a few cheap accessories with your Blue Yeti to make it
sound even better and I'm waiting on my Shockmount and Pop filter to
arrive, I hope that I'll have those by the end of the week.
Other than those additions the microphone is a very fine specimen of
audio engineering.
One of the extra features incorporated into this microphone is the
Headphones socket which allows you to listen to the microphone in
real time along with the output from your computer - the Blue Yeti
acts as a sound card when connected to your computer via USB -, I was
testing the Blue Yeti with some DJ software yesterday and the ability
to be able to listen to your Microphone in real time through
headphones whilst listening to output streams from your computer is a
most beneficial one, wish I'd had a device like the Blue Yeti years
ago to do this sort of thing as it would have saved me many hours of
annoyance.

Hi!
I ordered one of these microphones yesterday and I should receive
it today so I’m very much looking forward to testing the device
since I’ve read so many good reviews and reports on the mic.
The Blue Yeti won’t sound as good as it should at this time as
I’m still awaiting on several other accessories to enhance the
mic such as a mountshock, pop blocker and another microphone stand,
should have those next week thus even more fun testing <smile>.
I’ll share my initial tests with the list so others can hear what
the Yeti sounds like though I’m sure there might be a certain
amount of noise from other equipment in the room such has the Mac
computer itself? Anyway we’ll hear all about it shortly.
