What sets the Mik 16 Kit apart is its comprehensive collection of professional-grade audio equipment, meticulously designed for superior sound capture and versatility in a variety of environments. This kit is an essential tool for audio professionals who demand high-quality, durable, and innovative solutions for their recording needs.
The centerpiece of the Mik 16 Kit is the KM-16 Parabolic Microphone by Klover, a mid-size model renowned for its ability to transform any omni-directional microphone into a long-range audio capturing device. With the capability to pick up conversations from distances of up to 300 feet, the KM-16 is perfect for situations requiring discreet and distant audio pickup. Its true parabolic shape focuses sound energy precisely, unlike competitors' non-parabolic designs that scatter sound, resulting in a loss of audio clarity. The KM-16's modular design features specially crafted handles and a microphone yoke, which not only enhance its durability but also ensure that any damaged components can be replaced individually, safeguarding your investment.
The kit also includes the KMEQ Lavalier Microphone, a water-resistant, miniature, omni-directional condenser microphone with an XLR connector. This microphone is custom-built and equalized to complement the acoustic properties of the Klover parabolic collectors, delivering a flatter and more natural sound profile. It requires phantom power ranging from 9V to 48V to operate.
For amplification, the Whirlwind MD-1 Amplifier stands as the industry standard for parabolic, boom, and interview microphone situations. This rugged, battery-operated preamp delivers studio-quality sound with a high-performance input transformer, high-current line driver, and headphone monitor amp. It features an input pad, level control for signal adjustment, switchable 18V phantom power, and a steel case with a belt clip for durability and portability.
Monitoring your recordings is made comfortable and precise with the Remote Audio HN7506 Headphones. These headphones offer up to 45dB of outside noise isolation and are equipped with Sony MDR-7506 drivers for familiar and reliable sound quality. They are designed to protect your hearing while providing accurate, full-range monitoring in loud environments.
Lastly, the Mik 16 Kit includes the KK-16-TE Carrying Case, a waterproof shipping and road case designed to securely house the un-assembled KM-16 parabolic microphone and all its components, ensuring your equipment remains protected during transport and storage.
Whether used for military surveillance, search and rescue, sports broadcasting, panel discussions, open meetings, houses of worship, or nature studies, the Mik 16 Kit offers unparalleled audio recording capabilities. Its versatility and professional performance make it the ideal choice for those who require the best in audio recording technology.
