Hi there,
I am looking to purchase "the best" quality voice recorder on the market. My primary use is for phone recording and small group meetings with background noise. Diasonic's DDR-7000 seems to have these necessary features, but I do not know if this is a good recorder for what it is worth, marked at around $185. Sony's PCMD1, which runs for approximately $2000 may be the best.

What is the end product usage..? Do you expect significant roomnoise reduction?
I do lots of spoken word & cellphone recordings I never spend more then about $200
On my units. Pro corporate results always achieved.

With sound muffle in the background combined with noise, a feature of noise reduction along with audio gain, if that is correct?; the end result would allow to make out conversations masked through the ceiling(mainly for surveillance purposes). Could you recommend what product might be suitable?
-
Is this to be permanently installed in one location, if so did you consider a small boundary mic that can be mounted flush on a ceiling tile, such as the Crown MB1BR or Beyerdynamic MPC 22, either for around $75 on eBay?

Yeah, that's a very good suggestion. The mic(s) you use will be more important than the actual recorder.
