the two pickups are in one housing, but if you get one where the pickups
face directly opposite each other, you can get some decent stereo imaging. >>

Hi,
I assume you are referring to portable units. I just picked up a Sony MZN707
for $229.00. I was planning on running the appropriate cable from the
headphone jack to my audio system(the aux. or tape in) for playback. Can I
use my electret mono mike temporarily(using the appropriate mono to stereo
adapter) or must I use a special Plug in Power mic.? Should I have bought a
deck? The manual makes no referrence to hooking up to an audio system for
playback.
Thanks for your kind assistance,
Marty Marks
