[SOLVED] Top microphone for speech to text?

[4freedomssake]

I use a mic that came with Dragon Dictate from about five years ago. I have been searching around the net for a much higher quality mic that will actually listen to me correctly when I am dictating to it; unlike the piece of crap like I own now. A great quality microphone is needed because of my disability which leaves me the inability to type quickly. Around $75 would be nice.

I don't need one with a headset. Thanks.

I like the Blue Snowball mic for a cheaper price, the standard one has pickup type switch, the ICE is cheaper but just done one pickup setting.
Marantz is also pretty good for the price https://www.amazon.com/Marantz-Prof...t=&hvlocphy=9001834&hvtargid=pla-803358701906

@hang-the-9 Thanks for your help. I followed the link but spotted a Blue Yeti Nano condenser mic for eighty bucks. I've read decent reviews about Blue Yeti's quality but not this particular model. What do you think?

Don't know much about their other models, I use the Blue myself and we had a larger Yeti at work for conference calls but I can't really judge the quality by that.

I've been trying it out for a few days and I am very impressed by its quality and recognition of words. Now I just need to find a decent program to speech train it.
