4 out of 5 stars Works Well.......2007-12-24

Is a little Hissy, but picks up well. I wish it was a little more sensitive to the midrange, as it seems to pick up base and extreme highs easier. I use it with a micro br to record our band live for learning purposes and for that it works great.

4 out of 5 stars Only Practical Solution for Any Type of Personal Stereo Recorder.......2007-12-21

This is the only mic that is practical for use with my (apparently discontinued) Panasonic stereo cassette recorder (the onboard mic is monaural). Ignore the cord and simply attach the mic directly to the machine for a package that is scarcely any larger, heavier or less convenient than the original machine. Surprisingly, Panasonic offers no mic for the recorder, even though it's seen at least two editions. With the cassette machine I notice no improvement in sound quality with the higher-priced, stick-shaped Sony stereo mic.

Having had a couple of misfires with a digital mini-recorder (admittedly not "mechanical" breakdowns), I'd still recommend a cassette machine, if only for a back-up.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome microphone, recommend use of a stand........2007-12-20

This is an EXCELLENT mic. I use this paired with a Olympus VN-4100PC Digital Voice Recorder. The cord which comes with this has a fabric shroud, which picks up noise, so it's not used. The Mic is very sensitive, and I use it with a Cell Phone Holder (Car type with a suction cup) as a Microphone stand. The clarity of the Mic is very good, it's used to record Podcasts with guest speakers as part of a mobile studio setup. Highly recommended!

3 out of 5 stars Sopranos Beware!.......2007-11-19

This mic works great in almost any situation -- unless you're an operatic soprano. It can't handle the top notes and gets blown out and distorted -- and exactly on your "money notes" that are critical to recordings! If you aren't singing above the staff or are singing pop or are recording sounds or speaking voice, it is an incredible mic.

5 out of 5 stars Very Pleased.......2007-11-07

I bought this microphone mainly to record class lectures, and when I first tried it with my Alienware laptop it was very noisy and quiet. Apparently my laptop's microphone port didn't provide enough power for it to function properly, since it does say that one of the requirements is that the recording device provide "plug-in power". I tried it on another laptop (a dell inspiron) and it worked amazingly, when listening to the playback on headphones it was hard to tell the difference of what was on the recording and what was going on around you. The stereo separation adds a lot to the recordings.

I was still determined to make it work with my alienware so I did a little research and found the Griffin imic usb audio input device. I was very happy to find that this microphone worked with the griffin imic, MEANING THAT THIS IF YOU PAIR THIS MICROPHONE WITH THE GRIFFIN IMIC, IT WILL WORK WITH ANY COMPUTER THAT HAS A USB PORT!!

As for the quality of recordings, this microphone is very sensitive which can either be a good thing or a bad thing. It picks up someone lecturing in front of a class of about 70 very clearly, but it also picks up every person coughing or shuffling paper in the room. Ive recorded my sister playing flute and my friend playing guitar and it sounds very good. The stereo separation is very good and makes recordings sound very realistic. Overall I'm very pleased with this mic. I'm sure there are nicer better microphones but for the money it would be hard to beat this one. It looks really cool too.
