Martin,
 i saw your post and hope you dont mind me asking you this directly you
may forward it to someone at your company if you feel they have the
answer.

Im currently using a Plantronics USB DSP 400 for my voice work and
think it works good (Macintosh) - but i see you dont list them on your
site is the Andrea ANC 650 you sell that much better of a mic than this
one have you tested the plantronics? I of course dont want to duplicate
what i have now in the way of results by another mic (If
quality-results are the similar). But if this andrea is a better mic
for the price you ask then i would want to consider it.
