A comprehensive audio recording solution, the MiK 26 Dual Parabolic Collector kit comes equipped with a Whirlwind MD-1 Amplifier, Sennheiser MKE-2 Microphone, Real Audio HN7506 Headphones, and a KK-26-BD Carrying Case. This kit is designed to transform your audio recording experience, enabling you to capture sound from distances previously thought impossible.
The centerpiece of this kit is the Klover MiK 26, our largest parabolic microphone. This device converts your omni-directional microphone into a long-range audio capturing tool, capable of picking up conversations from up to 600 feet away. A popular choice in the broadcast industry, this model is frequently spotted on the sidelines of professional football games. However, its applications extend beyond broadcasting, proving useful in military, tactical, fire, and rescue operations.
The Klover MiK 26 boasts a patented modular design, allowing for easy replacement of individual components if damaged. The handles and microphone yoke are designed to protect the more expensive collector dish, sacrificing themselves if necessary. This modular design also facilitates easy upgrades, with the standard cross-bar easily replaceable with a monopod/tripod mount for reduced operator strain. The collector dish is designed for stackable transport, preventing scratches on the critical internal surface.
The Klover MiK 26's "True" parabolic shape focuses all sound energy on a single point, ensuring crisp and clear audio recording. Unlike competitor models, the Klover MiK 26 eliminates unwanted noises caused by component movement thanks to its vibration isolation components.
The kit also includes the Whirlwind MD-1 headphone amplifier, a rugged, battery-operated device offering studio-quality performance. It features a high-performance input transformer, an input pad and level control for adjusting to almost any mic or line level signal, and built-in 18V phantom power.
The Real Audio HN7506 headphones included in the kit offer professional-grade sound isolation, reducing outside ambience by up to 45dB. These headphones are designed to mimic the industry-standard Sony MDR-7506, ensuring consistent monitoring standards and reliability.
The kit is completed with a lightweight, roto-molded KK-26-BD carrying case, featuring custom foam inserts for protection, and the Sennheiser MKE-2 microphone, a miniature omni-directional lavalier condenser microphone with XLR connection, known for its wide frequency and high sensitivity response. Ideal for vocals and instruments, it's a favorite among field audio engineers, broadcast engineers, and film crews.
In summary, the MiK 26 Dual Parabolic Collector kit is a comprehensive, professional-grade audio recording solution, designed to deliver superior sound capture from great distances, in a variety of environments and applications.
