Thanks a lot for the information! I have two use cases in my mind:
(a) If I speak in a large empty room and use a microphone to record my voice 
(no playing back), can PA module-echo-cancel reduce the echo/feedback?
   You mentioned to use a decent microphone, is such a microphone can reduce 
the feedback via its hardware?

(b) When I do a presentation in a hall (both recording and playing back, and 
maybe multiple speakers), can PA module-echo-cancel reduce the echo/feedback? 

Thanks
