Heil Sound PR22-GOLD PR 22, Gold Version Large Diaphragm, Low Noise Dynamic Microphone

Truly, an audio professional's dream come true, and with a sleek gold finish as well, the revolutionary Heil Sound PR 22 (Gold) microphone is a dynamic cardioid microphone that comes equipped with a large (1.125") diaphragm, plus a patent pending ISO BAND™ isolation mounting that provides a greater amount articulation throughout its entire wide, flat, frequency range with very low handling noise. In addition, noise occurring at the rear of the mic is virtually eliminated thanks to a combination of special porting + a phasing plug design.

It features best-in-class rear noise rejection that means you capture more signal before feedback. It delivers superb mids and highs, but not at the expense of its frequency range. It's an extraordinarily “stage-friendly” mic that can take a full-on snare hit and provide the richness of the snare sound with no overload – no compromise. When working with a pair of PR 22's on a snare (one top-mount/one below), they produce what some might say is the best snare sound available at any cost, and with little to no EQ.

Along with its special magnet structure, the PR 22 realizes its exceptional performance via a large 1-1/8" low-mass voice coil assembly with a very unique internal sorbothane suspension system that's designed to reduce undesirable handling noise. Special attention has been paid to the phasing plug assembly with equally placed ports that sense audio from behind – entering them out of phase, all resulting in this exceptional mic producing a very linear cardioid pattern and reducing the proximity effect while achieving top articulation. This Heil element is usable in extreme high sound pressure levels and is immune to overload conditions, making it perfect for vocal and live sound applications.

The PR 22 comes supplied with a leatherette carrying bag and mic clip
