Heil Sound PR40 Cardioid Dynamic Microphone, Chrome
The Heil PR40 microphone boasts the widest frequency range of any dynamic mic in the HeilPR series. The PR 40 incorporates Heil’s sage-like understanding of phasingplug placement, along with the use of a very large (1”), low mass diaphragm,and custom magnet metals housed in a specially designed microphone body.
The PR 40diaphragm is shock mounted such that it is completely de-coupled from theanodized Champagne matte-finished steel body. In addition to dual mesh screens,each made with different diameter screen apertures, there is an internal breathblast filter on the diaphragm element itself, providing superb response for thehuman voice across the entire vocal range, without “popping” noises. In fact,the PR 40 will provide flawless, smooth, flat response from 28 Hz all the wayup to the 18k Hz, making this a great microphone for everything from vocals, tobass drums and tom drums, to guitar and bass cabinet mic’ing and more.
In short,the PR 40 is known by professionals as the “thoroughbred work-horse” ofprofessional sound recording and reinforcement.
The PR 40 isavailable in champagne, gold plate, or chrome plate. With all PR 40 models youget an adjustable cast metal microphone holder in a padded Leatherette bag withmolded foam insert.
