HM172 Omnidirectional Earset Mic

The HM172 earset microphone mounts securely to the user’s ear with a comfortable, bendable silicone frame and provides excellent vocal quality in a nearly invisible package. The cable runs neatly behind the neck for maximum concealment. A perspiration “drip” ring on the boom ensures the microphone capsule stays dry at all times. The flexible boom is ideal for maximum gain before feedback while keeping the element away from the user’s breath stream for low noise.

The HM172 exhibits an extended frequency response and an omni-directional polar pattern for outstanding clarity and natural sound with no proximity build-up. With its sleek and low profile design, coupled with professional audio quality, this unit is excellent for stage presentations, theatre, and broadcast studio operations.

The microphone is pre-wired with a TA5F connector for use with Lectrosonics UHF belt pack transmitters including LM, LMa, UM400, UM400a, SM, SMa, SMV, SMDa and SMQV. The wiring is compatible with earlier 5-pin inputs and the latest servo bias 5-pin inputs.

A replaceable HF peak cap is provided to subtly control excessive energy at the highest range of the frequency response. The tiny perforations in the diaphragm in the cap also provide a barrier to dust and moisture.

The earpiece and boom can be shaped separately for a secure, comfortable fit suitable for hours of continuous use on the left or right side of the head.

The headset is delivered furnished with two windscreens, a cable retaining clip and a spare HF peak cap.
