About Klover Mik 16 Kit, KM-16 Parabolic Collector, MM-1 Amp, B3 Mic&Pro 4AA Headphone

A comprehensive audio recording solution, the Mik 16 Kit includes the KM-16 Parabolic Microphone, Sound Devices MM-1 Amplifier, Countryman B3 Lavalier Microphone, and Koss Pro 4AA Headphone. This kit is designed to cater to a wide range of audio recording needs, from professional broadcasting to nature studies.

The centerpiece of the kit, the Klover MiK 16 Parabolic Microphone, transforms your standard omni-directional microphone into a long-range audio capturing device. With the ability to capture clear and crisp conversations from up to 300 feet away, this microphone stands out in the market. Its unique, modular design features specially designed handles and a microphone yoke that safeguard the collector dish, ensuring longevity and durability. Unlike other parabolic microphones, the Klover MiK 16 utilizes vibration isolation components to eliminate unwanted noise, providing superior sound quality.

The Sound Devices MM-1 Microphone Preamplifier is a versatile, portable, single-channel device with a robust headphone monitoring function. Its transformer-balanced input and output, along with a bipolar +/-15 volt power supply, ensure low-noise, low-distortion gain across all switch positions. This preamplifier also features an "unclippable" dual-stage limiter and a two-position high-pass filter, offering flexibility and control over your audio recording.

The Countryman B3 Lavalier Microphone is a compact, water-resistant, omni-directional condenser microphone with an XLR connector. This microphone is designed for discreet usage, making it ideal for broadcasting or panel discussions.

Rounding out the kit is the Koss Pro 4AA Headphone. Introduced in 1970, these headphones set the standard for full-size professional headphones, offering true full frequency and high fidelity performance. With impressive noise-isolating capabilities, these headphones are a favorite among broadcast and recording professionals.

In summary, the Mik 16 Kit is a comprehensive audio recording solution that combines the power of a parabolic microphone, the versatility of a preamplifier, the discretion of a lavalier microphone, and the high fidelity of professional headphones. Whether you're a professional in the broadcasting industry or an audiophile, this kit delivers superior audio quality and performance.
