Sennheiser I30H-C User Manual

General Description

Sennheiser’s modular Installed Sound Series microphones kits for podium, hanging, boundary layer and table stand applications facilitate all possible installation conﬁgurations at affordable prices. At the heart of the series are three superbly engineered capsules: the ME 34 cardioid, the ME 35 super cardioid and the unique lobar-patterned ME 36 mini shotgun. Each capsule can interface with three different goosenecks: the 15 cm MZH 3015 (6"), the 40 cm MZH 3040 (15.75") and the dual ﬂex 40 cm MZH 3042 (15.75"), all designed to maintain proper capsule placement. Each system requires 12-48 volt phantom power. All contact points are gold plated and corrosion resistant. All components have anti-reﬂective matte black surfaces.
