Bring unparalleled audio capture to your professional toolkit with the MiK 26 Tactical Parabolic Collector, a robust and high-quality parabolic microphone system designed for long-range sound acquisition. This innovative device is engineered to transform your omnidirectional microphone into a super long-range microphone, adept at gathering audio from distances of up to 600 feet. Ideal for a variety of professional applications, the MiK 26 is a mainstay in the broadcast industry, frequently seen on the sidelines of professional football games, and is equally valued in military, tactical, fire, and rescue operations.
The MiK 26 boasts a durable and modular design, allowing for easy transportation and customization. Its patented construction enables individual components to be replaced if damaged, ensuring longevity and adaptability. The collector dish's "True" parabolic shape is meticulously designed to focus sound energy precisely on a single point, unlike competitor dishes that compromise the parabolic shape for adjustable "focus" and sacrifice audio clarity. This attention to detail results in crisp, clear audio recordings without the distortion commonly found in other parabolic microphones.
To eliminate extraneous noise, the MiK 26 incorporates vibration isolation components in all connections to the dish. The rigid handles prevent operator-induced distortions, and additional vibration isolation in the microphone support ensures rapid dish movements do not compromise sound quality. These features make the MiK 26 an indispensable tool for capturing audio in challenging environments, from surveillance operations to search and rescue missions, from professional sports broadcasting to panel discussions, open meetings, houses of worship, and even nature studies.
Complementing the MiK 26 is the Sound Devices MM-1 Microphone Preamplifier, a portable and versatile device known for its low-noise, low-distortion gain. The MM-1's "unclippable" dual-stage limiter, high-pass filter, and flexible powering options make it a reliable choice for field audio engineers.
The Sennheiser MKE-2 microphone, a miniature omnidirectional lavalier condenser microphone with an XLR connection, is revered for its wide frequency response and high sensitivity, making it perfect for capturing both vocals and instruments with exceptional clarity.
For monitoring, the Real Audio HN7506 headphones offer a comfortable fit and significant noise isolation, reducing ambient sound by up to 45dB. These headphones are designed to replicate the sound of the industry-standard Sony MDR-7506, allowing for consistent and reliable audio monitoring in high-noise environments, such as helicopters, raceways, and rock concerts, without compromising hearing protection.
Included in this professional audio package is the KK-26-TE Flight Case, ensuring your equipment remains secure and ready for transport to any location. Whether you're recording in the studio or out in the field, this comprehensive audio solution provides the quality and reliability professionals demand.
