The condenser diaphragm, while only moving bare nanometers, will respond to sound quicker and more accurately. A dynamic element will not. You are physically moving the coil in a dynamic mic with your voice a much greater distance. The measly few db from a computer or sound in another room will not move the coil and therefore will not be recorded.

Anyone know if this is correct? That's how I've always assumed it worked.
