    ME66 - Short Shotgun Mic Capsule

    B&H# SEME66 | Mfr# ME66

    The Sennheiser ME66 capsule is a popular short shotgun microphone for use with the K6 or K6P power supplies. The modular design of K6-series microphones provide the freedom to adapt compatible capsules when necessary. The ME66 capsule is sold separately to accomadate those who may already own either of the K6 power supplies.

    The capsule features a highly directional, cardioid polar pattern yielding great attenuation at the sides of the microphone, maximizing pick up at the front. The result is a focused pick-up in highly ambient environments. A wide 40-20,000Hz frequency response provides detailed, accurate signal reproduction. It's short size allows camera mounting while remaining free of the frame.

    Audio-Technica

    XLR Male to XLR Angled Female Balanced Cable - 1.5'

    B&H# AUAT83141.5R | Mfr# ASP00127

    Audio-Technica is a leading manufacturer of audio cables, and their 3-Pin XLR Male to 3-Pin XLR Angled Female Balanced Cable is a professional, premium-grade microphone cable perfect for all types of applications. The 2-conductor, shielded, broadcast-type cable can also be used to extend the length of an existing XLR connection.

    • Balanced XLR Connectors (M/F)
    At each end, XLR connectors either have three pins (M) or sockets (F) within a locking metal shell. They are commonly used in professional audio applications to connect microphones, mixers, recording equipment and other gear.
    On typical XLR components, pin 1 is the + signal line, pin 2 is the - signal line and pin 3 is the ground/shield. This pin combination facilitates top-quality, low-noise, balanced audio, even across long-distance cable runs.
    • Phantom Power
    XLR cables are also capable of carrying DC "phantom power" to microphones on both the plus and minus signal lines. Shotgun and lavaliere microphones typically use phantom power or must use on-board batteries.
    • Shielded Ground
    The 3rd pin is connected to a copper-wound shield. Wrapped around the other two wires, this shield provides both an interference-blocking barrier and a grounded connection.
