    What is this supposed to mean?

    Meaningless, I use mics from cheap Chinese dynamics to rare vintage U47's. The acoustic environment and relative position of mic to sound source has more effect on the sound than the design.

    > a digital-output microphone

    It may have a digital output but it is not a digital output microphone! No more than there is any such a thing as digital headphones.
