A. Not really. These microphones require external pre-amps and an XLR adaptor for use on the Stream. Unless you are a professional who understands and requires the specific advantages of these types of microphones the additional cost and complexity may provide more frustration than advantage. Also, improper use of these microphones has the potential of damaging the Stream through too high a signal input.
