Sound Sensor Recomendation

Hey everyone.

Can somebody recommend a good quality sound sensor to work with the v4, preferably analog. I had a pair of cheepo's laying around that I tried (pictured below), didn't work on analog, and digital wasn't much better although a slight improvement. I'm wanting to get the whole "robot hears something on the left, head turns left" thing going, so any recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks.

@Marty.

I don't know if you saw it, but on page one, DJ mentioned about putting a capacitor to the signal line which I never tried as I was not sure what type of capacitor to use. So I went with the recommendation for the sound sensors I have linked to below. That are cheap, they are plug and play and they quite simply work without any additional work. They can be used directly from the 3.3v ADC power pins, or use 5v with a regulator.
