<p>This just came up on a Facebook group. This microphone has a headphone monitor jack which sometimes can be nice.</p>

<p>So this was posted in another FB group, but I wanted to share with my fellow RTers since I love new gadgets. This is by no means a new one, but it's quite simply the best open-air mic I've ever heard. I've tried plenty of them (high-gain USB from Martel - mic level, not USB), at least two different ones from Sound Professionals (the USB-6, I believe, and the little square ones that you can daisy-chain), the Labtec back in the day (great mic), both the Samson Meteor Mic and <span class="text_exposed_show">the Samson Go Mic.....this thing blows them all way, way, way out of the water.</span></p>
<div class="text_exposed_show"><p>It's not small by any means (looks like the boundary mics that videographers often put in the middle of the table to go with their lapel mics), but it's so so good.</p>

<p>Yes, I did try that 199 microphone and hated it. It was all distorted. I sent it back and Sound Professionsl still kept my money. I even sent it back within the first 30 days as was the rule. I didn't, however, have the same packaging. They always have a ton of rules so they can inevitably keep your money. There was no comparison. I had a very difficult time getting clear audio with it.</p>

<p>Hi, Kelli ~ I just wondered if you had tried the $199 USB mic that reporters are always recommending from Sound Professionals and compared it to this one on Amazon? </p>

<p>I just bought another one. The audio is crystal clear. </p>
<p></p>
<p>T, if you ever work in court or arbitrations, there is also a version of this microphone with a standard microphone plug. You can daisy chain them together for large rooms.</p>

<p>The reviews on Amazon are not very good on this microphone. I wouldn't pay attention to that. It seems the reviews are from people trying to hook it up to a video camera. It works great with the USB microphone. You plug the USB microphone into your computer and then plug one of these standard mics into the port on the back of the USB mic. You can then plug another standard into the back of that standard to form the daisy chain.</p> Sorry I'm late to this discus…tag:csrnation.ning.com,2014-06-25:1736041:Comment:13013592014-06-25T14:46:56.486ZSandyhttp://csrnation.ning.com/profile/SandyW
<p>Sorry I'm late to this discussion. It's not for a laptop, but I purchased a $20 microphone for my Mira from Radio Shack.</p>
<p>It works just as well as Stenograph's way-over-priced microphone.</p>

<p>I use a high gain mic I buy from Martel. It is around $150. I do not buy the one that has the battery tester attached. I have great quality audio with it and have been using it for around 15 years.</p>
