Neumann KMS 105 Supercardiod Vocal Condenser Microphone, Black

Make your live performances stand out with the Neumann KMS 105 Supercardioid Vocal Condenser Microphone in sleek black. This high-quality microphone has been meticulously engineered to capture and transmit the human voice with optimal clarity and precision, even in the challenging conditions of a live stage setting. The KMS 105 boasts high acoustic resolution and a smooth frequency response ranging from 20Hz to 20kHz, providing musicians with full control over their performance. Its low self-noise and coloration-free crosstalk behavior make it an excellent choice for use with in-ear monitoring systems. The Supercardioid characteristic of the capsule excels in suppressing sounds originating from the entire 180-degree hemisphere behind the microphone. This feature, coupled with the studio condenser capsule, ensures the nuanced transmission of the human voice, offering high acoustic transparency and a fine resolution of transients when compared to other dynamic handheld microphones. The microphone is equipped with carefully adjusted acoustic filters and transformerless impedance converters that can handle very high sound pressure levels, preventing overload even from strong plosive sounds. Despite its effective pop protection, the KMS 105 transmits sibilants and "S" sounds with their natural accentuation, without added harshness. The KMS 105 also features electronic compensation to adjust for the proximity effect in the capsule, a built-in high-pass filter with a 120 Hz cutoff frequency, and a maximum sound pressure level of 150 dB. Its low self-noise level allows for high gain levels without additional noise, and its high signal-to-noise ratio ensures optimal performance even at large distances. The microphone's transformerless output circuit allows for long cable transmissions without sound loss. Its robust, thick-walled metal housing provides effective protection against handling noise, and the hardened steel grille can be easily unscrewed for cleaning of the interior acoustic filters. In summary, the Neumann KMS 105 Supercardioid Vocal Condenser Microphone, with its 50ohms impedance, is a reliable and professional-grade tool that enhances the quality of live vocal performances.
