Finished in beige with a black grille, the Electro-Voice PL80c is a PL Series handheld supercardioid dynamic microphone offering an EQ-friendly tone for optimal reproduction of vocals, speech, and instruments in concerts, public address, houses of worship, and live stage applications. Its dynamic capsule is shock-mounted to reduce handling noise. It delivers a frequency response of 80 Hz to 16 kHz with a gentle boost centered at approximately 5 kHz.
Its neodymium magnet provides a high output and low noise floor without the need for external power. The supercardioid polar pattern consistently rejects sound at its off-axis points and yields high immunity to feedback. The XLR 3-pin output ensures compatibility with most microphone preamps, mixer inputs, and portable PA systems. The PL80c ships with a mic stand adapter and a soft, zippered gig bag.Ask Our Experts800-606-6969

Electro-Voice PL80C Reviews
use it as a sledgehammer if you don't need a mic
By Karen
Rated 2 out of 5
Date: 2015-08-06
The output on this dynamic mic is quite low and, I think, best used for live performance applications. For field recording, I can't use it, as I'd planned. Also, it's sturdy aka too heavy to hand hold for even a fairly short period; requiring a fishpole, which isn't always in the kit.
