Neumann KU 100 Dummy Head Microphone

Neumann KU 100 Dummy Head Microphone

The Neumann KU 100 is a binaural stereo microphone featuring two omnidirectional condenser capsules mounted on an artificial head enclosure. Designed for music, audio drama, and loudspeaker compatible recordings, it enables immersive binaural listening via headphones. Procure.ae supplies this precise audio equipment in the UAE.

This dummy head microphone captures binaural stereo audio with a frequency range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz and sensitivity of 20 mV/Pa at 1 kHz. It operates on 48 V ± 4 V phantom power or six AA batteries, with a 9 V external supply included. The unit features XLR 3 F and XLR 5 F connectors, weighing approximately 3500 g without batteries and 9500 g with its case. Dimensions are 280 mm in height, 180 mm in width, and 220 mm in depth.

The Neumann KU 100 utilizes an acoustical pressure transducer principle with directional patterns mimicking human ears. It delivers a maximum SPL of 135 dB (THD 0.5%) and 145 dB with preattenuation, alongside an SNR of 78 dB (A-weighted). Ideal for professional studio environments, it supports immersive binaural listening and high-fidelity loudspeaker recordings for musicians, sound engineers, and production houses.
