Title: Microphones...
Post by: Ayden on February 24, 2011, 08:09:49 pm
So, I have some wonderful headphones, and I won't bother buying some more just because of the microphones, if this could work out.
I have been looking on this product:
http://www.xoxide.com/zmmic1.html (http://www.xoxide.com/zmmic1.html)

These are the given specifications if you are too lazy to visit the site:

Specifications:
Sensitivity: -40 +/- 3dB
Impedance: Max. 2.2 kOhm
Standard Power: 2.0 V DC
Consumption: Max 0.5 mA
Sensitivity Reduction: Within-3dB at 1.5V
S/N: > 58dB
Directivity: Omnidirectional

My question is, whether these microphones are good or not based on the given specifications?
Thanks.

the world of microphones is pretty uncompetitve since there isnt much tech to it. so youre good with almost anything. as long as it isnt made of crap :p

ive got a friend over who is crazy about his headphones, and i just happened across this thread, he says they are good, so if he says good that means epic to normal people's standards

A decent one (sound reduction, easily audible words) should cost a bit over $20USD. A better one would cost over $40USD. Even better costs over $90.

Your price range should be between 20-30USD if you want hope of ever being heard at all.

lol the price is hardly ever an indication of quality, i had a $2 mic for 6 years that worked better than any other ive used, and the quality was spectacular
