A comprehensive audio recording solution, the MiK 26 Parabolic Collector with Sound Devices MM-1 Amplifier, Countryman B3 Lavalier Microphone, Real Audio HN7506 Headphones, and KKB-26 Carrying Bag is a professional-grade, high-quality product designed for capturing clear and crisp audio from great distances. This innovative kit from Adorama, a trusted brand in the world of photography and audio equipment, is a versatile tool for various applications, from broadcasting to military surveillance, fire and rescue operations, and nature studies.
The centerpiece of this kit, the Klover MiK 26, is a large parabolic microphone that transforms your omnidirectional mic into a super long-range audio capturing device. Its true parabolic shape focuses all sound energy on a single point, unlike competitor dishes that scatter sound energy to different locations. This design allows the MiK 26 to capture conversations from up to 600 feet away, making it a staple in the broadcast industry and a reliable tool for military and tactical uses.
The patented modular design of the Klover MiK ensures easy transport and replacement of individual components if damaged. The handles and microphone yoke are designed to protect the more expensive collector dish. The collector dish is designed to be stacked for transport without scratching the critical internal surface.
The kit also includes the Sound Devices MM-1, a single-channel, portable microphone 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.
The Countryman B3 Lavalier Microphone is a water-resistant, miniature, omnidirectional condenser microphone with an XLR connector. It's perfect for capturing audio in a variety of settings due to its high-quality omnidirectional polar pattern.
The Real Audio HN7506 headphones provide excellent sound isolation, protecting your ears while allowing you to monitor the quality of your recordings accurately. They are designed to sound like the industry standard Sony MDR-7506, ensuring consistency and reliability in your audio monitoring.
Lastly, the KKB-26 Carrying Bag, constructed of durable nylon and soft foam padding, provides a convenient and safe way to transport and store your equipment. It can carry a single assembled or two un-assembled KM-26 parabolic microphones, with two pockets for storing components.
In summary, this kit combines durability, style, and innovative design to provide a professional audio recording solution that is easy to transport and versatile in its applications.
