Product Overview

The KMS105 brings studio sound quality to the stage. Unlike typical stage microphones, which use dynamic capsules, the KMS105 is equipped with a true condenser microphone capsule, offering the superior clarity that made Neumann studio microphones famous all over the world. At the same time, the KMS105 possesses the ruggedness required of a stage mic, thus refuting the myth that condenser microphones must be fragile.

The KMS105 can stand enormous sound pressure levels of up to 150dB without clipping, and its tight, frequency-independent supercardioid pattern ensures high gain before feedback. The KMS105 has a much smoother frequency response than dynamic microphones and an airy top end. Compared to dynamic microphones, the Neumann KMS105 has a vastly superior transient response resulting in a more immediate, more emotional vocal sound. In practical terms: effortless intelligibility, without the usual EQ boosts, which further improves feedback resistance.

As a stage microphone, the KMS105 is optimized for close miking; a fixed low cut filter compensates for the proximity effect and ensures clear bass, even if the singer’s lips touch the microphone. The head-grille is made of hardened steel and features a carefully designed multi-level pop filter made of wire gauze. Because of its low output impedance of only 50ohms, the KM 105 can drive very long cable runs of up to 300 m (1000 ft) without transmission losses.

The KMS 105 is primarily designed as a handheld vocal microphone but can be used for other stage applications as well, due to its high SPL capability and wide dynamic range.
