Brilliant Quality

I am amazed! This headset mic is comfortable (which is not often found in headset mic's for a cheap price like this!), sturdy (dosen't fall of easy), and makes a natural sound with little to no feedback. We used this mic to mic several cast members in a musical production, and it sounds clear and natural. For the price, you simply can't get better. I know that if you were putting on an official professional show you would probably use a less visible mic like a lapel, but for amatuer theatre, and other things like announcements, teaching etc, this is a great choice; just add a belt pack transmitter with Mini XLR port and grab a reciever and ta da! You have a great mic to use. I would reccomend it alot for amatuer theatre, teaching, and many other things! 5 Star!

Mic incrível e surpreendente

O ponto principal para se ter um desempenho adequado a sua voz em cada aplicação é o aluste da posição. Como ele tem uma grande rejeição fora do eixo, qualquer pequeno afastamento da boca muda o timbre. Para acentuar som intimista, quente, encorpado, deve-se aproximar da boca, mas cuidando para não captar pufs, e não clipar, pois ele não tolera volumes de voz muito intensos(máximo 126 dB spl). Para situações de gritos, ou altos volumes de voz, é melhor uma captação mais lateral, não tão próxima da boca. Outro ponto espetacular é o incrível casamento de sensibilidade e impedância com os transmissores body pack AKG, desde o mais básico ( WMS mini pro) o rendimento é maravilhoso e a relação sinal/ruído atinge um nível que supera vários sistemas profissionais de mais de 10x o preço . Esse é um dos pontos mais fortes. Outro item formidável é como ele é tão simples de ajustar; depois que se coloca numa posição, ele fica fixo ali, mesmo com movimentos bruscos, diferente da maioria dos "famosos". Surpreendente para o preço.
