An all-inclusive, professional-grade audio recording solution, the Mik 16 Kit encompasses the KM-16 Parabolic Microphone, KMEQ Lavalier Microphone, and Whirlwind MD-1 Amplifier. This comprehensive kit is designed by Klover, a renowned brand celebrated for its high-quality and innovative audio equipment.
The KM-16 Parabolic Microphone, a mid-size model, transforms your omni-directional mic into a long-range, sound-capturing powerhouse. Its unique, modular design features specifically-designed handles and a microphone yoke, ensuring the protection of the collector dish. The KM-16's true parabolic shape focuses all sound energy on a single point, delivering clear and crisp audio recording that outperforms competitors. Vibration isolation components eliminate any unwanted noise caused by movement between components, ensuring the purest sound capture.
The KMEQ Lavalier Microphone, a custom-built version of the Countryman B3, is equalized specifically for our parabolic microphones. This water-resistant, miniature, omni-directional lavalier condenser microphone features an XLR connector with an electronic circuit that equalizes the output of the microphone to match the acoustic characteristics of the Klover MiK 09 parabolic collector. This equalization also works seamlessly with the Klover MiK 16, providing a more natural and balanced sound than standard lavalier microphone elements.
The Whirlwind MD-1 Amplifier is the industry standard for parabolic, boom, and interview mic situations. This rugged, battery-operated mic preamp delivers studio-quality performance with a high-performance input transformer, high-current line driver, and headphone monitor amp. It features an input pad and level control for adjusting to almost any mic or line level signal, and a separate balanced line level Aux input for monitoring a program mix, console foldback, or director's cues.
The Mik 16 Kit is versatile and adaptable, suitable for a range of applications from podcasting and filmmaking to live events. It's also ideal for military/security surveillance, fire and rescue efforts, broadcasting at professional sports events, panel discussions, open meetings, houses of worship, and nature studies. With the Mik 16 Kit, you can capture the sound you want, clear and crisp, from any direction and in any situation.
