It's really been duplicated everywhere.  I'm not sure where the official FAQ
is, but you can search on Google (www.google.com) for "dat-heads mic faq"
and I'm sure it'll pop up.  Try here as well:

I'm not an expert, really.  The DAT-Heads are.  Even so, they recommend
trying things out, recording with different mics and seeing what *you* like.
But they give you a good start.  Personally, for in-studio I use the
standard SM-57/58s and I'm trying out the Panasonics for field recording.
I've heard the quality of the sound from the headset mics at
SoundProfessionals, so I can vouch for their quality.  Good quality with a
minidisc recorder, no doubt.  That is at:

Hope I helped.
