Slightly over your budget is the AKG C1000S (110 pounds inc VAT from
Digital Village). This works with either phantom power (preferred) or
an internal PP3 9-volt battery.

I would be interested to hear the recording professionals' view of
this device.


C1000S is awful, just sold both of mine (used to use them for choirs / drum
overheads) and replaced them with Superlix CMH8K.

Best bet for a 100 quid speech microphone is a Superlux CMH8A, needs
phantom power though.

is where I got mine. He had some cheap phantom power supplies too.
