Best microphone for recording home system


I'd like to make some recordings displaying my home system with various songs and movies. I'm curious what mic's are available that will capture the music as best as possible and be within an affordable range.

I realize affordability is subjective, but let's be realistic. I just want to make some videos and post them on youtube. Again, let's not get into a debate about youtube's compression. That's not what this is about.

I would just like a microphone recommendation that's good at capturing music. I'm not looking at spending $1,000's or even $1,000. Let's keep it well below that mark please, if possible.

What's available?

Get a audio recorder device such as the Zoom H-5.  It has stereo microphones, mic preamps, a digital 4 track recorder and a USB computer interface.  Street price is around $300.
