Neumann KMS 104 (Silver)
Studio Grade Stage Microphone for Vocalists.
The Neumann KMS 104 is a premium handheld condenser microphone with a cardioid polar pattern, specifically designed for live vocal performances. Its high acoustic resolution and smooth frequency response ensure optimal control, allowing vocalists to deliver a clear and natural sound on stage. Finished in nickel, it offers both professional aesthetics and durability.
Exceptional Sound Quality.
Unlike traditional dynamic microphones, the KMS 104 features a high-resolution condenser capsule that captures every vocal nuance with remarkable transparency. It boasts an extended frequency range and fine transient response, making it ideal for singers who demand studio-quality sound on stage. The cardioid directional characteristic effectively suppresses unwanted background noise, ensuring outstanding vocal clarity.
Superior Stage Performance.
Engineered for live use, the KMS 104 excels with in-ear monitoring systems thanks to its low self-noise and uncoloured crosstalk behaviour. Its built-in acoustic filters and transformerless impedance converters prevent overload, even with powerful plosive sounds, while maintaining the microphone's natural tonal balance. Despite excellent pop protection, sibilants and "S" sounds are rendered with natural clarity, enhancing vocal expression.
Advanced Electrical Design.
The KMS 104 incorporates electronic compensation for the proximity effect, ensuring a balanced low-frequency response when used up close. A built-in high-pass filter at 120 Hz prevents excessive bass buildup, while its dynamic range of 132 dB and a maximum sound pressure level of 150 dB ensure exceptional handling of both subtle and powerful vocals. With an ultra-low self-noise level of just 18 dB(A), the microphone operates at high gain levels without introducing unwanted noise, offering artists greater freedom and flexibility.
Durable & Road Ready.
Built for the demands of live performance, the KMS 104 features a robust metal housing that effectively reduces handling noise. The hardened steel grille protects the capsule from impact and can be easily removed for cleaning, ensuring long-lasting performance. Thanks to its transformerless output circuit, the microphone delivers pristine sound even over long cable runs, making it a reliable choice for touring and stage professionals.
