Neumann KK 104 U Cardioid Condenser Capsule for Select Handheld Wireless Transmitters (Black)

The black Neumann KK 104 U is the cardioid condenser capsule from the famed Neumann KMS104 vocal microphone that has been outfitted with a universal twist-on mechanism, allowing you to use it with a wide variety of handheld wireless transmitter mics from Shure, Lectrosonics, and more that support interchangeable capsules. The KK 104 U accurately reproduces vocals with excellent transparency and range, while the cardioid polar pattern focuses audio capture on the performer, picking up less off-axis and rear sound, which helps to reduce feedback issues from monitors.

_Note that this version of the capsule is not compatible with Sennheiser handheld transmitters, please use the KK 104 S instead._

Works with a Wide Variety of Handheld Transmitters

The Neumann KK 104 U is the capsule from the acclaimed KSM104 vocal microphone, outfitted for use with wireless handheld transmitters that support a modular capsule design. The capsule is compatible with these systems: * Sony * Lectrosonics * MIPRO ACT * Shure (except BLX and GLX-D systems)

Studio-Quality Cardioid Capsule

With a built-in roll off filter and smooth 80 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response, the KK 104 U condenser capsule yields a transparent vocal sound with an airy top-end, providing studio-quality sound for live performances. The cardioid polar pattern reduces noise and ambiance at the off-axis sections of the microphone without coloration, helping to focus audio capture on the performer and reducing feedback and bleed.

Stage-Ready Performance

The capsule can handle SPLs up to 148 dB with a 0.5% total harmonic distortion and up to 153 dB with 3% THD. The integrated shockmount isolates the mic capsule from handling noise, while the built-in pop protector helps to reduce plosive sounds and vocal pops.
