MORE ABOUT THE KM 184
Experienced users often describe the sound of our small diaphragm microphone as „fresh“ and „vivid”. This is – among other factors – due to a slight treble lift around 9 kilohertz. The KM 184 is an experienced all-rounder, a mic for all seasons. It captures virtually any instrument with amazing complexity and depth of sound.



Another advantage: thanks to the extremely tight production tolerances, all KM 184 microphones produce a very consistent sound. Therefore, they can easily be used as a stereo pair with exact spatial imaging for all stereo recording methods.


FEATURES
Versatile small membrane microphone primarily for instrumental recordings
Slight treble lift for fresh and vivid sound
Precise cardioid directionality with excellent rejection of rearward sound
Uncolored reproduction of neighboring sound sources
Tight production tolerances – perfect for stereo recordings
