My microphone on siri and other calls sounds like its' in a drum on my right door speaker? Any better microphones that would work better than the one

Chances are it's not the microphone. It's your speakers that is worn. I never have an issue with the mic. Any aftermarket speaker is superior to factory.

are you using any kind of channel mixer? Or are you going straight into a powered speaker? I find that when you don't use a mixer, you have less control. If you are using a mixer, try lowering the bass to near 0. That being said, once you have a grip on the mic, it shouldn't be making noises, if you're getting noises when being passed around from hand to hand, then all I can say is that you'll get that with almost any mic this price range.

We have had the same issue with this microphone. If you still have the packaging, send it back!

Best thing to do is download the manual. I'm not happy with the built-in microphone.

I have heard from those I talk with on skype that the mic is buzzing a lot, and picks up background noises. It could be that my sound card isn't good enough to handle it, or that some of my settings are wrong (though I have tried to fix it for a while without luck).

I am using the free microphone that comes with Dragon Home 12. The free one was better than Plantronics Audio 628 listed in Dragon website. Perhaps the quality of the free microphones have improved

It's very likely that you have in your hands a faulty item. I recommend getting in contact with Logitech and having it replaced.There's also the possibility that your audio drivers or microphone connections are to blame, but I'd still go for the faulty product bit. Good luck!

This microphone should be fixed on a special tripod or mic stand to avoid noises. Even you need a special mic holder "spider" to avoid noises. Though this microphone is dynamic and less sensitive than condenser microphones, it will still pick up lots of noises if you hold it in hand. (And, as we already said, it is quite heavy)

Just don't bother.. Get something else.. Trust me I returned it the next day.. Sounded like crap.. And the voice prompt is really annoying specially at late hours of the night. Go with brookstone mini. Even a used one rocks. I bought 2. Hope this helps. Take care

There is a microphone on it. It's pretty good, but I like the apple headphones best...especially if you value base

I have also had this issue and I think the part of the rubber casing that covers the microphone muffles the sound. I actually have got in the habit of pulling that part open to talk! It's kind of a pain - I might cut it off!

That's a negative on the volume, and I don't know about siri. I would assume that the iPhone itself controls the monitoring of the mic that's on a headset or similar, so most likely that won't be a cable issue regardless.

I am not impressed. I spoke into my iPad with and without the mic and heard no difference. Sorry.

Obvious question: Is it in the upright position (microphone piece)? you must extend it outward to unmute it. Windows 7: Not so obvious: Goto system tray: Right click "Sound" (Speaker Icon) Click 'Sounds' in the context menu that pops up. In the Sound Dialog Box, look for 'Recording'. Speak into your microphone, and observe whether or not green bars are displayed to the right of the active/default device (notated by a green check mark). If a device that is not notated by a green check mark lights up, right click that device and make it the default microphone. Problem Solved. If the device that is notated by a green check mark lights up, right click that device and select Properties. Proceed to 'Levels' tab at the top of the new Microphone properties dialog box. Locate 'Microphone' and adjust the slider beneath it to the maximum volume level. Add some 'Microphone Boost' as well. Go half way on the slider for experimental reasons. Click OK Right click the microphone again, except this time click 'Configure speech recognition' instead of properties. Run through wizard and test your microphone.

I haven't had this problem other than a con-call with someone who accidentally had muted his mic. All I can suggest is that you check your sound system. It doesn't sound like a problem you are going to be able to fix at your end.

You use the phone's microphone. It has been OK to use so far but some people say my voice sounds muffled on the other end.

Hi Tiffy, Try plugging into the input for the Auxiliary in "AUX IN" on the back of the soundbar and go to source on the remote to AUX on the soundbar. This should work for you although I do not know what kind of microphone your using. If the jack is a quarter-inch then there is no input on the soundbar. Let me know if you have any other questions..hope this helps.
