Neumann KM 183 - Omni-directional microphone - Nickel

Neumann KM183 - Omni Microphone - Nickel

The Neumann KM 183 is an omnidirectional microphone in nickel based on the successful KM 184 cardioid microphone, which has become a standard within the global studio community in just a very short time.

The Neumann KM183 features a pressure transducer with a boost of approximately 7 dB at 10 kHz in the free field. In the diffuse sound field it has a flat frequency response. The KM 183 has the same transformerless circuitry as is used in the KM 100 system, resulting in excellent technical specifications.

The Neumann KM 183 is a good choice for all users who look for a high-quality miniature microphone, but do not need the complex, modular KM 100 system, which continues to be part of the Neumann product range..
