Not sure what you are trying to achieve. But, if you want the most natural acoustic sound I would think you'd want to use either the onboard XY mic setup on the H5, or use a pair of external mics in the 1 and 2 inputs. I have an H5 and am really pleased with it. I had an H4n for years, and recently upgraded to the H5. It is better. I think you can actually get quite nice recordings just using the onboard mics. I have a pair of Oktava condenser mics that I use when I record. They are superb, and provide a better recording than the onboard mics. All I do after I've recorded is drop into Garageband and just do some final touches. Easy as can be, and don't have to deal with any pickup or amped issues. Mike
