About CAD Audio 878HL

Take your audio recording to the next level with the CAD Audio 878HL Omnidirectional Dynamic Desktop Microphone. This high-quality, professional-grade microphone is designed with innovative features and modern styling, housed in a durable Cycolac casing, making it the ideal choice for all industrial and commercial public address and paging applications.

The 878HL microphone boasts a dual impedance feature, with a convenient slide switch for easy selection between low or high impedance, catering to your specific audio needs. Its wide band frequency response is smooth and peak-free, with a slight rise above 2kHz, delivering a "natural" and highly intelligible sound that enhances your audio recording experience.

One of the standout features of this versatile microphone is its long-lasting DPDT professional leaf switches, offering you the choice of a simple push-to-talk bar with locking capabilities or lift-to-talk operation. This ensures years of dependable, trouble-free performance. The lift-to-talk operation can be easily disabled with a slide switch located under the microphone base, providing you with flexibility and control over your audio recording process.

The CAD Audio 878HL microphone is designed to withstand normal wear and tear while maintaining its superior performance over a long lifespan. It features four molded "feet", non-skid, non-marring, and permanently resilient, located under the zinc die-cast base, ensuring stability during use.

This dynamic microphone comes with a 2.13m / 7' four-conductor, two-shielded cable, with the microphone circuit wired normally open. The high impedance position is 40000Ohms and the low impedance is 400Ohms, with the low impedance position recommended for long cable length requirements. This allows for cable lengths of 30.5m / 100' or more to be used without loss of level or deterioration of high-frequency response.

In summary, the CAD Audio 878HL Omnidirectional Dynamic Desktop Microphone with Locking Push to Talk Switch is a robust, professional, and versatile audio tool, perfect for enhancing your audio recording and broadcasting needs.
