I need to change radically my review. From 2 to 5 stars. The noise was not nearly at the micro, because it works great! Thus, a recommendation on my part, and also a warning: If you do not decent sound card (internal or external), which should be aware that a top micro indeed delivers the sound, but the card covering them then maybe with noise & Co.
On my MacBook I had caused the iChat adapter in insert that powerful noise with this micro. I close my Zoom H1 and take this as the "interface" is peace! No noise, nothing ....
The picture shows the noise floor with iChat Adapter ... has nothing to do with the micro!
