I have to agree 110% with Rob's comments. I'd also observe that while the external preamp's certainly improve performance they also bring a significant usability hit in the field. A compact recorder + preamp is far more unwieldy than an recorder of similar bulk, plus you end having to deal with additional batteries and cables (which are an extra cost not shown in the price comparisons). After recording experiences with a HiMD and external preamp I'd not willingly choose to use a recorder + preamp setup in the field again. cheers Paul On Jul 1, 2008, at 2:32 AM, Rob Danielson wrote: > For recording ambience in quiet locations (and all less critical > situations) I feel that buying an external mic preamp to off-set a > noisy mic preamp in the recorder is usually NOT the best investment. > Consider these higher quality, "budget" _system_ prices: |
