The Sony ICD-BX700 is the same compel recorder because the icd-px720 except it does not have a usb port since fast/easy transfers of files until a computer and it’s silver instead of black. Cost difference between the two is about $10-$20 so once you decide whether you demand a usb port or not the detemination is a no brainer. Both recorders have shq hq mode that allow recordings in stereo but barely if you’re using an external stereo mic like sony’s ecm-ds70p that i do use with them and recomend. Sound quality on these recorders is excellent in shq or hq modes and hq mode on them compared until hq mode on sony’s cheaper/older icd-b300/b400/b600 models is much much better with no unwanted sibilate like on those lower models. The built-in mics are quite sensitive and do a nearly better job then the olympus vn-5000 that isn’t a wicked recorder either. I do have sony’s external stereo mic (ecm-ds70p) that i mentioned and not barely does it allow fairly great stereo recordings since a budget price but quite noticeably improves well sensitivity overall sq.
The external mic is certainly not a necessity though since these recorders do have sensitive considerate quality built-in mics but it will allow stereo recordigs improve sq and demand an already excellent recorder until someone else level.
In short decide whether you demand a usb port or not and get the corresponding model icd-bx700 or icd-px720 because except since that they are the same compel thing and since the money can’t be beat. Very considerate quality and very satisfied with both of them!
