AKG AKG CM311 XLR Headworn Differoid Noise Canceling Cardioid Mic for Vocals with TA3F Connection

Developed for and with major performing musicians reaching for clarity with increased gain before feedback. Crown’s differoid concept was perfect for the task. The CM311A increases gain before feedback by as much as 6-12dB. The Crown CM311A only transmits what is the differential of the front and back elements increasing rejection of unwanted background noise and discriminates against distant sound sources such as monitor loudspeakers and instruments. Solve your on-stage problems with a hands free CM311A. The CM311A terminates in a belt clip housing that can be phantom powered or battery powered. It has XLR out as well as a line out to feed a wireless transmitter. The CM311A/E is provided with stripped leads and a wiring diagram for popular wireless systems. CM312A has a standard cardioid element.

This model is non-ROHS and not intended for European use.
