- How long have you been using it?
One week.

- Which feature do you like the most / the least?
The most: size.
The least: crosstalk.

- Did you try any other models before buying it?
No

- How would you rate its value for money?
Excellent.

- Based on your experience, would you buy this product again?
Certainly.

The only disadvantage is the front/back crosstalk.
Most of the signal from the back reaches the front mics and vice versa.
I haven't found the right setting.
What good is four channels?
If anyone has information that might help me, I'd be most grateful...

(Originally written by FredDup/translated from Audiofanzine FR)
I bought an H4 almost one year ago and after reading the reviews about the H2 I bought it too.
I liked the difference in size: I was disappointed by the size of the H4 but very satisfied with the sound quality of the recordings I made with it. Considering the price, I hesitated a bit.
The H2 is much smaller and easier to hide for concert recordings.
I had big expectations regarding the mic input, I bought an old Sony mic to record concerts. The sound of the first recordings using the H2 was exciting. It was not the case with the small Sony mic, which worked much better with my Minidisc player (not enough lows with the H2!).
But I'm very happy with it, the sound with the integrated mic is very good.

I like most of all the surround mode. But I've been testing the H2 for only one week.

I've noticed several nice surprises with respect to the H4: files with hour and date. Easy setting of recording levels (which I miss on th H4). The forward and backward buttons (used for almost all settings...) allow you to set everything, even while you're recording.
I haven't compared recordings made with both devices.
I will keep them both: the H2 doesn't allow multitrack recording but its size, configuration (W mode is great for ensembles; 360° is also good), and easy settings are great for mobile recordings.
