MCHH-200 Performance Handheld Microphone!

Speco Technologies has leveraged over 40 years of audio industry experience to bring you the highest level of quality performing microphones in the industry. Speco Technologies’ MCHH-200 microphone’s design and components are

designed specifically for mobile applications. The mesh with a copper-solder structure, zinc-alloy body and a bright, smooth surface treatment is weather-resistant and can be used for outdoor applications. The sleek case design of MCHH-200 fits ergonomically into the hand to prevent the microphone from being dropped. Surrounding noise interference is extremely low due to a high-grade balance and shielded cable.

Features:

• Hyper-Cardioid polar pattern reduces feedback .

• Clear tone quality prevents “pop” noises for the higher sounds.

• High-quality zinc-alloy metal, weather-resistant housing.

• An integrated windscreen sponge protects against wind and breathing pick-up.

Specifications:

Element: Dynamic Polar Pattern: Uni-Directional Frequency: 40Hz~15kHz Sensitivity: -52dB ±3dB (0dB=1V/Pa at 1kHz) Output impedance: 600 ohms ±30% (at 1kHz)

Frequency Response Graph:

Connecting and disconnecting the microphone cable:

1. Insert the XLR connector end of the microphone cable into the microphone. If necessary, rotate the connector to align the ridge on the cable connector and the groove in the microphone socket. Push the connector into the microphone until it clicks.

2. To disconnect the cable and microphone, grasp the connector while depressing the tab.

Pull the connector away from the microphone.

Usage:

1. For the best Gain-before-feedback and isolation from undesired background noise, aim the microphone toward the sound source and away from undesired sound source.

2. Do not cover any part of the grille with your hand. Covering the grille alters the sound and distorts the polar pattern, increasing the chance for feedback.

Caution:

1. If the head of the microphone is covered by a hand or brought close to the speaker, a howling sound may be generated.To prevent this, first decrease the volume, then place the microphone so that it is not pointed directly at the speaker and make sure that there is a sufficient distance between the microphone and speaker.

2. It is important to keep foreign particles out of the grille and the windscreen because they may alter the frequency response of the microphone.The grille should be periodically cleaned using warm, soapy water and rinsed with plain water. Allow grille to dry completely before replacing.

3. Due to the high sensitivity of the cartridge, do not drop the microphone or apply a jolting hit to it.

4. To maintain the sensitivity and quality of sound reproduction, avoid exposing it to moisture and extreme temperatures.

Warranty:

Speco Technologies offers a limited enclosed warranty card.
