Neumann BCM 705 Large Diaphragm Hypercardioid Dynamic Broadcast Microphone

The ideal cost-effective broadcast microphone for any in-studio speech applications, Neumann's BCM705's construction is functionally optimized to convey emotion with technical perfection. Its dynamic capsule is voiced for a smooth yet clear sound, and the hypercardioid pattern, along with the internal shock mount and pop filter, minimize extraneous noises.

Its characteristic shape is functionally optimized to be used with any industry-standard microphone boom arms. Thanks to its elastic microphone mount and an updated internal capsule suspension, the mic is doubly protected against rumble. An internal foam screen that protects the capsule from "pops" as well as dirt, moisture, and nicotine. For increased hygiene, the head-grille can also be easily twisted off for quick cleaning.

While Neumann's BCM104 is a condenser microphone, the BCM705 is a a dynamic microphone with a moving coil capsule. With its hypercardioid pattern and close-speech optimized capsule, it's great for radio stations and small studios, keeping your sound clean and clear, even in situations that aren't optimal.
