Great microphone for both studio use and broadcast via amateur radio. I get rave reviews for my audio on ham radio when using this mic. The accessories from Heil are excellent as well and have made the use of the mic with different radios a breeze. It's been well worth the money.

Where precision and versatility meet, the Heil PR40 Large Diameter Dynamic Cardioid Studio Microphone stands out as a top-tier choice for audio professionals and enthusiasts alike. Engineered with a keen attention to detail, the PR40 features the broadest frequency response in the esteemed Heil PR series, ranging from a deep 28 Hz to an impressive 18 kHz. This expansive range ensures that the microphone captures the full spectrum of sound, from the resonant lows of a bass drum to the crisp highs of cymbals, making it an ideal selection for a multitude of recording scenarios.
The PR40 is crafted with a pioneering understanding of phasing plug placement, which, when combined with a substantial 1-inch, low mass diaphragm and custom-designed magnet metals, results in unparalleled sound clarity and richness. The microphone's diaphragm is meticulously shock-mounted, effectively isolating it from the anodized Champagne matte-finished steel body, and eliminating unwanted vibrations and handling noise.
Dual mesh screens, each with distinct diameter screen apertures, work in tandem with an internal breath blast filter positioned on the diaphragm element itself. This advanced design not only enhances the microphone's response to the human voice across the entire vocal range but also eradicates plosive sounds, ensuring recordings are crystal clear without any disruptive "popping" noises.
Professionals often refer to the PR40 as the "thoroughbred work-horse" of the industry, a testament to its reliable and high-quality performance in various applications. Whether capturing the nuances of vocal performances, the dynamic range of musical instruments, or the clarity needed for podcasting, this microphone excels in delivering professional-grade audio.
The PR40's aesthetic is as refined as its audio capture capabilities, available in a sleek black body with a striking gold grill, adding a touch of elegance to any studio setup. Each microphone comes complete with a broadcast arm and XLR cable for seamless integration into your recording environment, as well as a microphone suspension shock mount to further enhance sound quality by minimizing additional noise.
Included with all PR40 models is an adjustable cast metal microphone holder, ensuring secure placement and optimal positioning. The microphone is also presented in a padded Leatherette bag with a molded foam insert, providing both protection and portability for the discerning audio professional on the move.
Elevate your audio recordings with the Heil PR40 Large Diameter Dynamic Cardioid Studio Microphone, a durable, versatile, and reliable solution that promises to deliver high-quality sound in any professional studio setting.
