Lapel Microphone Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The AT831cW Lavalier Microphone is small, solid and sounds fine. The problem is the cable. The cable is too fragile, it breaks easily and needs to be replaced every couple of years, or sooner. The fun part of it is that you cannot purchase the cable alone - without the microphone on it (although the mic can be unscrewed) - and so, it's a $75 a pop expense.
The transmitters are very poorly designed.
Overall: AVOID.

The AT831CW is terminated with locking 4-pin connector for AT UniPak bodypack wireless transmitters. Featuring a miniature condenser microphone with a cardioid polar pattern, the AT831CW is designed for hands-free applications in sound reinforcement systems and for use by professional musicians. The AT831CW provides improved gain before feedback that normally cannot be achieved with miniature omnidirectional microphones. Close-up voice pickup is crisp and clean, yet full sounding, while suppression of background noise is significantly improved over that of stand-mounted full-size cardioid microphones. Audio-Technica design engineers have utilized the newest low-mass technology in the quest for superior performance. Features Clip-on lavalier condenser cardioid microphone Provides crisp, full-sounding voice Excellent gain before feedback and suppression of background noise The microphone can be attached to clothing using the clip provided. An open-pore foam windscreen simply slips over the head of the microphone, effectively reducing wind noise or popping when used extra close.

Vic Firth Stereo Isolation Headphones. Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)These things are awsome! They kill the drums sound down to a low volume and really save your ears from the beating they take without ear plugs. They will enable you to play for hours without making your ears tired and being able to put music thru them is awsome. I used to have to play music ridiclusly loud through my main speaker system. Now i just plug these in to my computer and hear the music clearly and still hear my drums. Definetly a must buy for any drummer.

Vic Firth SIH1 Stereo Isolation Drummers Headphones are designed to protect musicians from the high sound levels associated with their instruments. Prolonged exposure to these excessive levels of noise can have traumatic and lasting effects, including hearing fatigue, tinnitus and permanent hearing loss. These are specially designed headphones, which drastically reduce the level of external sound reaching the musician's ears, offering valuable protection from potential damage. The SIH1 reduces overall noise levels by 24 decibels and features high quality stereo headphones. Unlike non-isolation headsets, where musicians typically crank the volume to very high and potentially damaging sound levels in order to hear the music clearly, the SIH1 reduces ambient noise from the instruments. This allows the musician to play along with the recorded music or monitor other performers in a live situation at comfortable and safe sound levels. Designed in conjunction with Vic Firth Signature artist Rod Morgenstein, these headphones were made with the recording, performing and teaching musician in mind! When asked about the SIH1's, Rod commented, 'The concept of these headphones has changed my musical life! After years of using open air headphones in studios and practice at volume levels that were damaging my hearing - I can now use these new headphones for hours on end with no fatigue at all, and with no risk of hearing damage since I can listen at a comfortable volume level.'
