This is a very high quality hand-held microphone at an extremely affordable price. It works beautifully with speech recognition software and has been compared by many to the considerably more expensive Sennheiser MD431II. We simply say this: hold it, use it with speech recognition software, and you will be convinced.

Comments: If you don't mind the need to use an appropriate microphone stand (see below) this is an extraordinarily high quality desktop or hand-held microphone for use with speech recognition software. It will provide superb results and is very very noise canceling. We have been amazed at the ability to successfully use this microphone a full 12 inches away from our mouth and get great speech recognition results even with music playing from our desktop speakers.

We recommend using it with a monaural external sound adapter, such as the Andrea USB adapter, but using an appropriate XLR to 1/8 inch adapter (see below), it can also be plugged directly into your PC. Be sure to order the XLR to 1/8 inch male adapter (below) and consider the foam wind screen. Shipping weight about 3 lbs.

Special Note: This microphone is not bundled with a cable. If you plan to interface this with your PC or an external sound adapter (recommended), you should purchase one of the XLR to 1/8 cables below.

Positive Rating As accurate as the most expensive Sennheiser
From KHALID IKRAM of Potomac, Maryland on 3/11/2020.

I have a number of speech microphones, including the top rated Sennheiser 431 II. I read a number of passages of equal length and complexity with the Sennheiser and the Samson Q7. Both performed flawlessly – – never more than a single mistake from either of them. The difference is that the Sennheiser costs around $500, and the Samson on sale from Speech Recognition Solutions $53. Go figure! Oh, the Samson were not even plugged directly into the computer (as is strongly recommended by Dragon), but into one of those multiple ports on an extender.
