Bob One of the advantages of the Stream, as it records at a low rate, is that recordings take up less space. It's designed as a voice recorder, not something to record a symphony concert with. And that's for the better, in my estimation, as it discourages bootlegging. The VR Stream is a mp3 pl

Thanks for all the info about the Victor Stream. I was hoping it would at least be able to record at 128k mp3 or wma. Stereo is a good way to get clues about your environment that mono can't do. I realize the Stream is not intended for this purpose. I just wish it was. I don't like carrying

No, it can't. I believe it records at 20 kbps, mono. However the mic is really really sensitive. I record things starting (cars etc), and it doesn't sound half bad. Have a good day from Tyler C. Wood! contact details: email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] msn: [EMAIL PROTECTED] skype: the_conman283 syste

Hey Bruce, I will stand to be corrected. One of the first things I tried to do with the stream was to make a short recording. I played it back through some Sony headphones, and I thought the recording sounded a bit tinny, but I will agree, it sounds immensely better than many cell phone recordi

I agree with Bruce on this one. Given that the purpose of the VR Stream is hardly as a recording device, it actually does a rather decent job and acceptible in noncritical recording situations. Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from thi

With all true respect, while I agree with your facts, I have to disagree at least in part with your conclusions. When compared with other similarly-sized/purposed devices, i.e. other notetakers, cellphones, etc., the Stream comes out remarkably well in terms of audio quality. Certainly if you compa

I just received my VRStream yesterday, and I was a little disappointed in the quality of recording, at least from the built in mic. Haven't had a chance to try it with an external mic. The microphone's level of sensitivity isn't adjustable or configurable. In other words, if you want quality for
