The Audix MicroPod Gooseneck Microphone incorporates the Micro Series microphones and combines them with a gooseneck mount and mounting flange for a complete podium microphone solution. The MicroPod gooseneck microphones are more than suitable for use in lecture halls, houses-of-worship, court rooms, board rooms, assembly halls, etc. The M1250B microphone feature's a built-in condenser capsule and output stage, eliminating the need for bulky external preamplifiers and powering devices. The condenser element features high sensitivity and a wide frequency response of 80Hz to 20kHz. The cardioid polar pattern effectively minimizes noise and off-axis audio signal that can cause residual noise and feed-back. The included MGN18 18" gooseneck houses the capsule and provides flexible, quiet microphone positioning. The XLR male output stage base is convenient for quick installation into a standard mixer or preamplifier input. A flange mount is also provided for surface installation on tables and podiums.
