The best quality from any recorder will happen with an external microphone placed six to nine inches from the speaker's mouth. I know that this requires toting around at least 25 feet of thick microphone cord and a tripod microphone stand, which is inconvenient and a hassle. yet the great result will speak for themselves many years into the future.
