Heil Sound ProSet IC
Headset Microphone for ICOM RTX with IC capsule
WARNING!!! The AD-1-IC8 adapter cable is NOT included in the offer
Designed to meet the exacting standards of world-class contesters and DXers, the Heil Sound Pro Series is the best-selling Boom Mic/Headset combo on the market! The Heil Sound Pro set is available in two models: Pro Set 6 and Pro Set iC. Both are soft, versatile microphone/headsets designed for comfort, durability, and, most importantly, performance.
The earcups are full-sized, with heavily padded cushions for operator comfort during long periods of use. The earcup covers are removable for washing, and replacement capsules are also available. In addition to passively isolating noise, Pro Set now includes Heil Sound's exclusive phase reversal technology, which allows the user to "move" the incoming signal by engaging the phase reversal switch; this creates a unique spatial widening sound that, in some situations, can significantly improve listening in pileups.
The speakers of the Pro Set series are 200 Ohm nominal devices, with a -3 dB drop at 8000 Hz. This combination greatly reduces the hiss encountered in the receiver's audio stages. These speakers have average sensitivity but are easily driven by most RTX units.
The Pro Set iC (PS iC) uses Heil Sound's specially designed "iC" condenser element for compatibility with the low gain found on many Icom transceiver microphone amplifier stages. The -3dB points are fixed at 80 Hz and 12.5 kHz. The iC element requires +5 volt DC phantom power, which is supplied by all iCOM systems. The PS iC also comes with the AD-1 iC adapter cable.
The Pro Set 6, on the other hand, uses the HC-6 element. Designed for commercial broadcast applications, the -3dB points are fixed at 100 Hz and 12 kHz with a sensitivity of -57 dB at 600 ohm output impedance (centered at 1 kHz.) The Pro Set 6 requires an optional adapter cable to connect the ProSet to the transceiver's microphone jack input.
Each Pro Set comes with a microphone windscreen. The windscreen does not affect the microphone's frequency response and is very effective at minimizing breath noise while speaking. Take advantage of Heil Sound's years of engineering experience and buy a Pro Set today!
