Sennheiser MKE 66 stereo mike & Sony MZ-R35  =  good result.
the mic's  a bit pricey though.


Beware the mic input on the Sharp 702 is it's weak link. 
a rather poor mic pre-amp which colours the sound quite badly(IMHP),
..It's brilliant if you use an external pre-amp ( or mixer) into the line 
IP.

I actually bought the 702, but when it wouldn't work there were no
replacements in the shop , so they gave me the Sony instead. 


Sometimes I think the digital compression loses things (including stuff I
could hear through the headphones during recording)
..but for the money and conveniance you can't beat em.
