KM 150 construction and properties

This microphone consists of the KM 100 transmitter in combination with the AK50 capsule. The mic itself is only 92 or 110 mm long and has a diameter of 22 mm, while the active capsule is only 35 or 47 mm long. The AK 50 is a pressure-gradient transducer with hyper-cardioid pickup patterns. Attenuation of sound incidence from the side or rear equals approximately 10 dB, with a minimum sensitivity at an angle of 120 degrees.

The KM 100 microphone uses 48V phantom power, producing high output and low noise. Furthermore, you are provided with a highly clear sound with very little distortion. All sensitive parts are well shielded in the capsule.
