Become a master of long-distance audio capture with the MiK 26 Dual Parabolic Collector kit. This comprehensive set includes the Klover MiK 26, our largest parabolic microphone, renowned for transforming your omni-directional mic into a super long-range audio capturing device. This kit is a favorite in the broadcast industry, frequently spotted on the sidelines of professional football games, and is also utilized for military, tactical, fire, and rescue applications.
The Klover MiK 26 Parabolic Collector is designed to capture conversations from up to 600 feet away, making it an ideal tool for surveillance, broadcasting, panel discussions, open meetings, houses of worship, and nature studies. Its patented modular design ensures easy transport and allows for individual components to be replaced if damaged. The handles and microphone yoke are designed to protect the more expensive collector dish, and the collector dish itself is stackable for easy transportation without scratching the critical internal surface.
The MiK 26's "True" parabolic shape focuses all sound energy on a single point, ensuring crisp and clear audio recording. Unlike competitor's dishes, the MiK 26 eliminates unwanted noises through the incorporation of vibration isolation components in all connections. This feature, combined with the rigid design of the handles, prevents distortion of the dish and eliminates noise caused by rapid motion of the dish.
The kit also includes the Sound Devices MM-1 Microphone Preamplifier, a single-channel, portable device with a powerful headphone monitoring function. This high-performance preamp features an "unclippable" dual-stage limiter and two-position high-pass filter, providing low-noise, low-distortion gain at all switch positions.
The Countryman B3 Lavalier Microphone, a water-resistant, miniature, omni-directional condenser microphone with an XLR connector, is also part of this comprehensive kit.
For monitoring your recordings, the kit includes the Real Audio HN7506 headphones. These headphones offer up to 45dB of outside ambience sealing, allowing for accurate, full-range monitoring in loud environments. They are designed to sound like the industry standard Sony MDR-7506 headphones, ensuring consistency in monitoring standards.
Finally, the kit is completed with the KK-26-BD Carrying Case, a lightweight, roto-molded case with custom foam inserts for protection. This case is designed to carry or store a single assembled KM-26 parabolic microphone with the amplifier in place, providing a convenient and economical solution for transportation and storage.
In summary, the MiK 26 Dual Parabolic Collector kit offers a comprehensive solution for long-distance audio capture, providing superior performance, versatility, and convenience.
