Hi Kevin,

Thanks for posting the Sony PCM-D1 recording, which reminded me that the So=
ny PCM-Dxx series recorders have remarkably quiet internal mics compared to=
 the other pocket recorders that are currently on the market. I own the les=
s expensive model PCM-D50, which I believe comes with the same internal mic=
rophones that are specified with a self noise level of 20 dB(A) only.

Regards,
Raimund
