Mike's Mics - Introduction

This is one of a series of microphone tests of various mics I have around the house. My goal is to find the one or two that work best for virtual meetings. My criteria are 1) Sound Quality and 2) Low Distraction. This means I want a mic that sounds good to others without being too noticeable.

The room I'm using to test is a carpeted bedroom with painted walls, a bookshelf, a dresser, a desk, and a twin bed. The room has no sound deadening, and my tests have no post-processing.
