Bring your audio recording to the next level with the Mik 16 Kit, a comprehensive audio package that includes the KM-16 Parabolic Microphone, KMEQ Lavalier Microphone, Sound Devices MM-1 Amplifier, and Koss Pro 4AA Headphone. This kit is designed for professionals seeking high-quality, durable, and reliable audio equipment.
The KM-16 Parabolic Microphone, a product of the reputable Klover brand, is a mid-size microphone that transforms your omni-directional mic into a long-range, sound-capturing powerhouse. With its unique ability to gather audio from up to 300 feet away, this microphone is perfect for capturing clear and crisp audio in various recording situations. Its modular design, complete with specifically-designed handles and a microphone yoke, ensures protection for the collector dish, reducing the risk of damage.
The KM-16 stands out from the competition with its true parabolic shape, focusing all sound energy on a single point for superior audio definition. Its vibration isolation components eliminate unwanted noises, ensuring only the desired sound is captured. This microphone is versatile, with a cardioid and omnidirectional polar pattern, making it ideal for a range of applications including military surveillance, fire and rescue, broadcasting, panel discussions, open meetings, houses of worship, and nature study.
The Sound Devices MM-1 Microphone Preamplifier is a single-channel, portable preamplifier with a powerful headphone monitoring function. Its transformer-balanced input and output, along with a bipolar +/-15 volt power supply, ensure low-noise, low-distortion gain at all switch positions. It also features an "unclippable" dual-stage limiter and two-position high-pass filter, providing flexible microphone powering options.
The KMEQ Equalized Microphone, a custom-built version of the Countryman B3, is designed specifically for our parabolic microphones. This water-resistant, miniature, omni-directional lavalier condenser microphone with XLR connector delivers a deeper, more natural sound, enhancing the acoustic characteristics of the Klover MiK 09 and MiK 16 parabolic collectors.
Finally, the Koss Pro 4AA headphones, a staple in the radio and recording industries, offer superior isolation, accurate reproduction, and sound intensity. These full-size professional headphones deliver the excitement of a live performance with every recording, meeting the stringent demands of broadcast and recording professionals.
