The VoxGuard VU Nearfield Absorber from Primacoustic is an acoustic-absorption shield for minimizing room ambience and reflections in project- and professional-recording applications. The VoxGuard VU is made of high-density open-cell acoustic foam and a rigid ABS backing that reduces bass buildup and provides a lightweight, yet sturdy base. The shield features an outlet for a microphone cable and will mount onto any microphone stand using the included threaded mic-stand adapter, knurled ring, and extension bar. Use the VoxGuard while recording vocalists and musicians in control rooms, around other musicians or to minimize noise during field recording and podcasts.
