AKG CK31 Cardioid Microphone Capsule

The AKG CK31 is a cardioid microphone capsule designed for use with the DAM (Discreet Acoustics Modular) Series mounting modules. The cardioid polar pattern minimizes noise and ambiance at the off-axis (sides) of the microphone. The result increases directivity and provides high gain-before-feedback response when using near speakers or monitors.

The wide frequency response of 50 Hz to 20 kHz minimizes low-frequency noise caused by wind and proximity effect while reproducing audio signal with great accuracy and rich detail. The module design allows quick and easy capsule replacement for added flexibility. The package includes a special two-part windscreen, which efficiently reduces wind and pop noise.

Modular Design
The CK31 is designed with gold-plated contacts with deep threads for use with the DAM (Discreet Acoustics Modular) Series mounting modules. The modular design offers quick capsule replacement and enhances flexibility.
Cardioid Polar Pattern
The cardioid polar pattern minimizes noise and ambient audio signal at the off-axis (sides) of the microphone capsule.
Wide Frequency Response
The wide frequency response of 50 Hz to 20 kHz offers smooth, accurate audio reproduction while minimizing low-frequency noise.
Dual-Layer Wind Protection
The included dual-layer windscreen provides a primary layer, which disperses the incoming wind stream while the second layer further diffuses wind flow before reaching the diaphragm.

Senal CXBS-1 Desktop Base for Gooseneck Microphones

The Senal CXBS-1 is designed to safely mount a CX series or other XLR gooseneck microphone on a desktop, tabletop, or podium, without having to permanently install it. Its weighted base ensures stability and prevents the mic from tipping over or wobbling when it is bumped or moved. The angled XLR input connector maintains a low profile to keep the mic from blocking the speaker's line of sight.

To keep the microphone steady, five nonskid feet resist slipping on smooth or slanted surfaces. The CXBS-1 is compatible with the CXGN-12C and CXGN-18C Senal gooseneck microphones, as well as with other XLR gooseneck mics.

Weighted Base
  • Weighted base for increased microphone stability
  • Resists tipping over or wobbling
Nonskid Feet
  • Five nonskid feet keep the base and microphone steady
  • Resist slipping on a slanted surface
Balanced Output
  • 9.4' output cable terminated with XLR male connector
  • Balanced XLR output ensures a noise-free signal over long cable runs
Sturdy Construction
  • Metal construction ensures long-lasting performance and dependability
