Frank,

I missed out one important item - headphones, so you can hear what you
are getting. Ideally get the enclosed type with ear muffs which
exclude much of the direct sound.

I didn't plug my Brinibox, if you are into building things. The
prototype was made from a cardboard box with cheap mono mics but gives
quite a good stereo image:

A comparison with Sennheiser MKH616 mics is on

The Brinibox is Rig2.
