Under the banner of professional audio capture, Adorama presents the comprehensive MiK 26 Parabolic Collector Kit, a synergy of high-quality components designed for the discerning audio professional. This kit is an assemblage of durable, innovative, and professional-grade equipment, ensuring that you can capture audio with unparalleled clarity from distances you never thought possible.
The centerpiece, the Klover MiK 26 Parabolic Collector, is our flagship parabolic microphone, transforming any omni-directional mic into a super long-range device capable of picking up conversations from up to 600 feet away. A mainstay in the broadcast industry, the MiK 26 is regularly spotted on the sidelines of professional football games and is equally adept in military, tactical, fire, and rescue applications.
The Klover MiK 26 boasts a patented modular design that not only facilitates easy transport but also allows for individual components to be replaced if damaged. The handles and microphone yoke are engineered to absorb impact, safeguarding the more valuable collector dish. The collector dish itself is designed to be stackable, preventing scratches to the critical internal surface during transportation.
Crisp and clear audio recording is achieved through the MiK 26's "True" parabolic shape, which focuses all sound energy on a single point, unlike competitor dishes that scatter sound energy and compromise audio quality. The Klover MiK 26 also features vibration isolation components at all connection points, eliminating the unwanted noise that can occur with rapid movement or handling.
The Sound Devices MM-1 Microphone Preamplifier included in the kit is a testament to versatility and portability. With a transformer-balanced input and output, and a robust dual-stage limiter, this preamplifier ensures low-noise, low-distortion gain across all settings. It offers flexible microphone powering options and is operable via AA batteries or an external power source.
Complementing the kit is the Countryman B3 Lavalier Microphone, a water-resistant, miniature, omni-directional condenser microphone that promises consistent, reliable performance even in challenging environments.
For monitoring, the Real Audio HN7506 Headphones provide exceptional comfort and up to 45dB of ambient noise isolation. These headphones are designed to mirror the sound of the industry-standard Sony MDR-7506, allowing for seamless transitions without compromising monitoring accuracy. The inclusion of a dynamic or electret boom microphone ensures broadcast-quality audio capture directly from the headphones.
Finally, the KK-26-BD Carrying Case is a lightweight, roto-molded case with custom foam inserts, providing a secure and economical solution for transporting or storing your MiK 26 Parabolic Collector and amplifier.
Whether for military surveillance, search and rescue, professional sports broadcasting, panel discussions, open meetings, houses of worship, or nature studies, this kit delivers superior audio capture capabilities. The MiK 26 Parabolic Collector Kit is the choice for professionals who require stylish, high-quality, and innovative audio equipment that stands up to the rigors of field use.
