Neumann KM 185 mt Hypercardioid Condenser Mic
The Neumann KM 185 mt is a small diaphragm condenser microphone from the Series 180 family, designed for demanding stage and studio applications. It features a hypercardioid polar pattern and operates on 48 V phantom power with 3.2 mA current consumption. Procure.ae supplies this precise audio equipment across the UAE and wider MEA region.
This small diaphragm condenser microphone utilizes a pressure gradient transducer principle to capture sound with a frequency range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz. It delivers a sensitivity of 10 mV/Pa ± 1 dB at 1 kHz and handles a maximum SPL of 142 dB. The hypercardioid polar pattern ensures focused pickup, while the equivalent noise levels are 24 dB (CCIR) and 15 dB-A.
The unit connects via an XLR 3 F connector and requires 48 V ± 4 V phantom power for operation. It measures 107 mm in length and 22 mm in diameter, weighing approximately 80 g. Ideal for classical piano and heavy metal drums, this non-modular design is part of the Series 180 family and fits professional audio setups.
