  • Integrated Hum-Compensating Coil
  • WARRANTY FROM THE OFFICIAL GREEK AKG DISTRIBUTOR
The AKG D7 is a reference handheld dynamic vocal microphone designed to capture vocals and instruments with condenser-like sound for artists and audio engineers in clubs, concert venues, and houses of worship. The laminated dual-layer Varimotion diaphragm exhibits a supercardioid polar pattern for excellent off-axis rejection of audio across the frequency spectrum. This allows high gain before feedback and reduced stage bleed through the mic. Handling noise is minimized by the mechano-pneumatic capsule suspension and an integrated 80 Hz high-pass filter. Thanks to a 70 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response and a maximum SPL of 147 dB, the D7 delivers detailed sound even on the loudest sources. A hum-compensating coil is incorporated to help reduce interference from electrical devices and to ensure that your captured sound comes through with minimal noise. In addition, the heavy-duty die-cast chassis with a dent-resistant grille is built rugged to withstand the rigors of daily use. An XLR connector utilizing gold-plated pins ensures signal transfer with maximum conductivity. A padded zip case, SA 61 stand adapter, and a replacement inner windscreen are included. Dual-Thickness Varimotion Diaphragm Provides a subtle and open sound in all frequency ranges Feedback Suppression The laminate diaphragm material damps critical resonance peaks Integrated Hum-Compensating Coil Provides a crisp and a cleaner sound Precision Metal Dust Filter Protects the capsule from sound-changing pollution Mechano-Pneumatic Suspension Effectively eliminates unwanted handling noises Microphone

The Beta 87A has consistently been a top choice of performers and audio technicians around the world due to its superb accuracy and detail, and rich vocal production. This long-standing favorite now incorporates a cardioid polar pattern and has been named the Beta 87C TM. Developed in response to professional demands associated with the use of personal monitoring devices like the Shure PSM ? Series, Shure's new Beta 87C premium vocal microphone delivers studio-grade performance and a smooth, extended high-end frequency response in a cardioid condenser design. The uniform cardioid polar pattern of the Beta 87C enables users to effectively reject ambient noise arriving at the rear of the microphone, an attribute that will be especially appealing to users of personal monitors and others who frequently experience undesirable sounds bleeding into their mixes. Other features include:
  • Smooth, wide frequency response with slight presence rise
  • Uniform cardioid polar pattern for maximum isolation
  • Minimal off-axis tone coloration
  • Low-frequency roll-off compensates for proximity effect
  • Three-stage pop filter minimizes breath pop and noise
  • Break-resistant stand adapter
  • Frequency response: 50 to 20,000 Hz
  • Tailored for Vocals & Speech
  • Cardioid Polar Pattern
  • Shock-Mounted Dynamic Cartridge
  • 50 Hz to 15 kHz Frequency Response
The Shure 55SH Series II is a Unidyne cardioid dynamic microphone boasting a classic look and vocal-tailored sound for recording sessions, live stage applications, and on-camera use. The dynamic cartridge is shock-mounted to impede handling noise and vibrations transferred through your mic stand. The implementation of a cardioid polar pattern minimizes pickup of off-axis noise and ambience, yielding higher gain before feedback and attenuated stage bleed. The mic delivers a frequency response of 50 Hz to 15 kHz with a gentle presence boost peaking at approximately 6.5 kHz. Its XLR 3-pin output ensures compatibility with most mixer inputs, microphone preamps, and portable PA systems. An on/off switch is provided for convenient muting of the mic between speeches or performances. The attached, self-tensioning, 5/8“-27 thread swivel mount can be tilted up to 45 degrees forward and 80 degrees backward. Chrome die-cast metal construction provides tour-worthy durability. Classic Appearance In addition to being a mic with solid audio characteristics for the studio and stage, the 55SH Series II makes a great prop microphone in video shoots, photos, and theater applications Tailored Frequency Response The 50 Hz to 15 kHz frequency response features a slight dip in the low-mid frequency range and a gentle rise from 1 to 10 kHz, making its sonic performance optimized for vocals, public address, and dialog Cardioid Polar Pattern The cardioid polar pattern is effective in minimizing sound pickup at the off-axis sections of the capsule, ensuring high gain before feedback Shock-Mounted Cartridge The dynamic capsule is shock-mounted for added protection against shock- and structure-born noise Shure 55SH II Specs Microphone

The first Neumann microphone with a dynamic capsule. Functionally optimized design
specifically for the broadcast field, featuring integrated pop protection, suppression of
structure-borne noise and a hypercardioid directional characteristic. 
Emotion conveyed with technical perfection. This is the ideal which the Neumann
microphones in the Broadcast Line have been designed to fulfill. The fine-tuning to the
requirements of professional broadcast studios and the individual, functionally optimized
design* ensure that these are microphones of character.
The BCM 705 is Neumann?s first dynamic microphone. The housing and headgrille are
identical to those of the BCM 104; only the green logo indicates that this is something new
from Neumann. The principle of reduction to the essentials can be seen in the dynamic
capsule with a hypercardioid directional characteristic, specifically designed for speech
reproduction at close range. Multi-level isolation from structure-borne noise ensures operation
free of interference, even in a lively studio environment.
Mechanical Features
The microphone headgrille twists off easily for quick cleaning. Neumann offers optional,
color-coded headgrilles so that, for reasons of hygiene, each announcer can use his or her
individual headgrille. Iin front of the capsule, mounted on a frame holder, a fine gauze serves
as a built-in popscreen.
The microphones of the Broadcast Line have an elastic mount against structure-borne noise,
that is compatible with standard broadcast-segment microphone arms.
Acoustic features
The frequency response has a light treble boost, in the region from 2 kHz to 9 kHz, aiding the
speech intelligibility. The bass frequency response is designed to compensate for the overemphasis
of the bass caused by the proximity effect.
The integrated Pop Screen
A pop screen not only prevents the occurrence of plosive pop noises in vocal recordings, but also
efficiently prevents unwanted particles, from respiratory moisture, nicotine, to food remnants, from
settling on the diaphragm. The pop screen can be removed for cleaning without the use of tools.
Mounting
The preferred mode of operation is to suspend the BCM 104 or BCM 705 from a standard studio
boom arm.
A thread adapter to fit different connector threads is included. In order to provide protection from
structure-borne noise, both the capsule and the microphone in its mount are elastically suspended.

The optional SG 5 swivel mount allows additional angling of the microphone by +/-90 degrees.
