Over the years, Neumann has established itself as a trusted name in the audio industry, and the Neumann KM 143 Wide Cardioid Polar Pattern Microphone is a testament to their commitment to quality and versatility. This professional-grade microphone set combines the KM 100 phantom power supply/output stage and the AK 43 wide-angled cardioid microphone element, offering an all-in-one solution for diverse audio recording needs.
The KM 143 microphone is designed with a modular approach, allowing for the interchangeability of microphone elements and accessories based on individual applications. This feature makes it a versatile choice for audio professionals, catering to a wide range of recording scenarios.
The KM 100 phantom power supply is engineered for quick connection to all compatible elements and accessories. It utilizes transformer-less circuitry, ensuring high output capability and low self-noise. The balanced XLR output is safeguarded against radio frequency interference, promising a clear and uninterrupted audio output.
The heart of this microphone, the AK 43 element, boasts a pressure gradient, single diaphragm transducer with a wide-angle cardioid polar pattern. This pattern offers a more generous pick-up area than conventional cardioid microphones, making it an excellent choice for ambiance recording, vocal recording, stereo miking, and close miking of instruments.
The microphone's attenuation at various degrees (4dB at 90 degrees, 8dB at 135 degrees, and 11dB at 180 degrees) further enhances its sound capturing capabilities. The entire microphone circuitry is ingeniously built into the capsule on a single hybrid module, measuring just 2cm in area. This compact design ensures a pristine output signal without any coloration.
The set also includes a swivel mount and windscreen. The mount clamps to any flat surface, providing flexibility in positioning, while the windscreen significantly reduces distortion caused by explosive "pops". With the Neumann KM 143 Wide Cardioid Polar Pattern Microphone, you can expect a reliable, high-quality, and versatile audio recording experience.
