Neumann KM 183 mt Stereo Set
The KM 183 is a universal microphone for studio applications. Its transparent sound makes the KM 183 a superb microphone for acoustic instruments, such as piano, percussion, drums, acoustic guitar, strings, woodwinds, brass, choir, and wherever sonic authenticity is paramount. As a pressure transducer, the KM 183’s low frequency response is limitless, which makes it an excellent choice for orchestra and church organ recordings. Thanks to its superior off-axis behavior, the KM 183 works extremely well in stereo and surround setups. Due to its small size, the KM 183 is visually unobtrusive and well suited to TV and radio applications.
The KM 183 is a state-of-the-art small diaphragm condenser microphone with a frequency-independent omnidirectional polar pattern. Its very natural, transparent sound with very low self-noise and high SPL capability have made the KM 183 a worldwide studio standard for many applications ranging from classical piano to heavy metal drums.
The KM 183 offers state-of-the-art Neumann engineering. Its omnidirectional pattern is uniform and largely frequency-independent. In practical use, there is no sound colouration over a wide pickup angle, which is crucial in multi-microphone setups and for precise stereo/surround imaging. The KM 183’s pressure transducer capsule is equalized for a flat frequency response in the diffuse field. In the free field (i.e. close to the sound source), it has a treble boost of approximately 7dB at 10kHz. Its innovative transformerless head amplifier offers a wide dynamic range of 127dB and is carefully designed to maintain the capsule’s sonic integrity. The KM 183 has a very low self-noise of only 13dB-A and can handle high sound pressure levels of up to 140dB free from distortion. Due to its low impedance output stage, the KM 183 can drive long cable runs of up to 300 meters (1000 feet) without transmission losses.
The full range of accessories is also available to order including:
WNS 100 - Windshields in full range of colours
MNV 21 mt - Auditorium hanger
EA 2124 A mt - Elastic suspension
