This high-quality microphone is the culmination of extensive research and feedback from some of the world's most accomplished drummers and sound technicians.
The Heil PR48 is designed with a large, vulcanized double shock-mounted diaphragm element, making it impervious to external vibrations and noise. This feature ensures that your kick drum's sound is captured in its purest form, free from any unwanted interference.
One of the standout features of this dynamic cardioid microphone is its exceptional rear noise rejection capability. Coupled with an impressive 148db SPL handling, the PR48 is perfectly equipped to handle the high-energy, high-volume demands of live performances without compromising on sound clarity or fidelity.
Housed in a robust, flat black emron steel body with striking red screens, the PR48 is as durable as it is stylish. The adjustable swivel mount offers flexibility and ease of use, making it a reliable choice for drummers of all genres, from rock and country to jazz, funk, blues, and metal.
The PR48 also boasts passive internal low pass filters, which enhance the frequencies where the kick drum's sound shines the most. This innovative feature allows the kick beater to be represented in the mix like never before, delivering a kick drum sound that is unrivaled in its richness and depth.

Experience the unmatched sound quality of the Heil PR48 Dynamic Cardioid Kick Drum Microphone and elevate your drumming performance to new heights.
