Good Audio

[woodman]

Just purchased my first md recorder (nh700) and i'm looking for mics - i've seen these on ebay a few times - anyone have any experience with these? Or can recommend something similar that won't break the bank? they offer a small 9v battery to boost the mics, as well... I've about the sound professionals mics, and I'm considering those, too. any suggestions?

thanks

Sound Professionals BMC-2, Microphone Madness basic binaurals, Church Audio (I think), and these Good Audio mics all use the same microphone capsule: Panasonic WM-61a.

So they all have the same specs. The difference is in the housings, clips, cords and plugs.

I got the SoundPros and (separately) these clips

which fit snugly on the little tapered tips of the SoundPros (other mics have bigger housings), at right angles to the mics, and place them at perfect outward-pointing angles when they're on my shirt collar. The SoundPros have a thin cord, which is good for stealth but perhaps not as strong as some of the others.

These GA mics with the alligator clips sticking straight out the back are going to look twice as large as the mics alone, and while they recommend hanging them off eyeglasses, they'd either project way out or be pointed toward the floor. They might be OK clipped to a baseball cap or something like that. Think how you're going to wear them, though, before you get them.
