mic: my house is made of twigs so you can hear the little kids all over the house specially my room because its right by the stairs and bathroom. i need a mic that cant pic up all those noises but only someone who is speaking infront of it. im thinking a condensor mic but dont know anything aobut XLR's so if somone wants to post xlrs please tell me how to use em and the extra equipment i need for them. but i prefer usb so i can use it on alot of other devices like my playstation. my price... from 0-120 bucks. but please post the best price to performance instead of the cheapest.

 

speakers: im getting the ath m50s and gertting this http://www.amazon.com/Syba-Stereo-Headphone-Amplifier-SD-DAC63057/dp/B009WN7QT4/ref=sr_1_cc_1?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1406518304&sr=1-1-catcorr&keywords=syba+amp+and+dac with it. but i also want speakers to be able to hook up to something like that(or another dac/amp) so i can use my headphones sometimes or speakers(or both at the same time) the speakers i checked were these but now i realize that stuff that looks good doesnt always perform(beats). so i need speakers that can plug into a dac/amp with headphones already plugged(preferably the dac/amp i posted, but you can suggest a better one for my needs)  the speakers i want is something the size of those something that can fit in a 4.5 inch(19.5cm) gap. thank you for helping me  

Space Journal #1: So Apparently i  was dropped on the moon like i'm a mars rover, in a matter of hours i have found the transformers on the dark side of the moon. Turns out its not that dark since dem robots are filled with lights, i waved hi to the Russians on the space station, turns out all those stories about space finding humans instead of the other way around is true(soviet Russia joke). They threw me some Heineken beer and I've been sitting staring at the people of this forum and earth since.

Condenser mics are fairly sensitive and will probably pick up all the noise around you. Get a ModMic 4.0

 

For small speakers, Creative's Gigaworks series aint bad - T20

A shotgun mic maybe? But those work better when they are a bit further away and I'm not sure about how well they cancel out background noise. Although a modmic might be enough for commentaries especially if you're not a big time youtuber. No need to spend even more than that.

Definitely some kind of dynamic mic, not a condenser.
