− | * Buy LG/Sanyo/Panasonic. Not necessarily Chinese in origin, but Chinese resellers are often the cheapest way to get smaller quantities shipped.

− | == Microphones ==
| |
− | There are Chinese clones of popular mics (BM-800, BM-700, BM-8000), which are usually (but not always) significantly cheaper than the originals and hence what you should be after if you're looking for acceptable value for money out of Chinese microphones.
| |
− | {{note|The microphones mentioned in the parenthesis above all ship with a 3.5mm plug. If you're looking to do live recordings/chat or broadcasting with a microphone plugged in your PC keep in mind that there's going to be a considerable amount of noise (which can normally be removed through editing). A solution to that would be to use a phantom power, which kinda defeats the purpose of buying chink microphones as it's more expensive than those mics themselves.}}
| |
− | | |
− | A simpler solution would be to buy a USB microphone (like MK-F100TL or SF 922B). This way microphones that are going to be used on a PC can draw sufficient power without the use of other tools so you wouldn't have to worry that much about noise caused by lack of power.
