Neumann KM184 Small Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser Microphone

Key Features:

• Small-diaphragm condenser mic
• Of the "fet 100" series with a transformerless microphone circuit
• Capsule with cardiod pick-up pattern
• Exceptionally low inherent self-noise (16dB A-weighted)
• Exceptionally high overload capacity (up to 138dB SPL before overload)
• Exceptionally clear sound reproduction free of coloration
• Very smooth frequency curves parallel to 0 degrees sound incidence
• 20Hz to 20kHz frequency range
• Equivalent loudness level due to inherent noise: 16dB (DIN/IEC 651 dB-A), 25dB (CCIR 468-3 weighted)
• S/N ratio re:1Pa @ 1kHz, (CCIR 468-3 weighted) 69dB (S/N = 94dB - equiv. noise) A-weighted: 78dB
• Max SPL for less than 0.5% THD: 138dB
• Total dynamic range of the microphone amplifier (Max SPL-self noise): 122dB
• Requires +44V to +52V phantom power
