The TLDR says: > Throat mics are an improvement over a standalone wired microphone Seems like a claim to me!

  I can accept a general claim that some throat mic has at least one advantage over an unnamed wired microphone.

  Yep, lemme weaken that real quick -- I was thinking a really old kinda shitty one, technically musician grade gear is standalone and wired...

    Yeah I was looking over at my SM7b on my desk and considering writing something up, but decided against it. I was pretty sure you weren’t being that literal!

  You pulled out a sentence fragment to completely change the meaning, not really a cool thing to do. > > tl;dr - Don’t chuck the Sony 1000XMs/AirPods just yet. Throat mics are an improvement over a standalone wired microphone (if that’s what you are using), and have better background noise reduction but in a quiet room your usual bluetooth headset is still way more convenient

    That seems like the same meaning to me? Throat mics are absolutely not an improvement over a standalone wired microphone.
    • antiterra 4y ago
      They are if you prioritize mobility, and possibly otherwise, if you are talking about something like the plastic microphone with a wobbly mini plug that popped into my mind’s eye.
