Well, by cheap I dont know what your budget is. But if you want a good sounding microphone for talking, find a one that is a studio/condenser microphone. It will require a usb powered pre-amp audio interface or a simple usb adapter for computer use because it comes with an XLR connection. Best bet would be to go to music stores and search for studio microphone you like depending on the price, and then buy the usb preamp or adapter separately. Also buy a pop filter.
If your budget is 7-10K, I would recommend MXL company ones and then buy usb adapters like this. MXL last very long. If you have extra budget then buy a usb preamp audio interface(make sure there is an xlr connection). The reason why the audio interface is so you have a direct hardware monitoring. They don't have any delays if you plan on hearing live through headphones.
This was my setup MXL 2008, M-Audio Fast Track. I used this for guitar and song recordings.
