I feel that it best fits the "abstract iconography" style of international signage. The others are not only too detailed, as Moe mentioned, but too realistic, mainly in terms of the implied dimensionality of the mic. Most international signs that I recall have had more of a flat feeling, and "A" works best along that line. “A” wins for me.

Many times logos are reduced and you will lose the definition of the icon. My best Peter...Shelley I vote for A…I find the others to come across a little fuzzy.

The feel of the international signs is spot on with the first design. The others are too detailed, nice but too detailed. moe egan “A”.
