specification
The M 296 condenser microphone is an addition to the metal diaphragm microphone family which includes the M 294 / M 295. Based on the nearly linear frequency response of the transmission factor up to 20 kHz it guarantees orthophonic recordings in the near and far field as well as recordings of high sound levels. It is designed for professional applications in radio and television broadcasting, sound studios, concert halls, theatres, and for high-quality recordings of all genres.
The transformerless microphone preamplifier shows a high output capability and has a symmetrical output stage. A 10 dB pre-attenuation pad and the bass roll-off extend the application range. The two switches are sunk into the middle of the preamplifier.
A special version -the M 296 S- is available for measurement applications. Its frequency response complies with DIN IEC 651 for Class 2 sound level meters.
