Heil Sound ProSet Elite 6 HC-6 capsule
Professional headset with boom microphone, HC-6 dynamic capsule from 100 Hz to 12.5 kHz, phase reversal
The Heil ProSet Elite is the flagship headset of Heil's amateur radio range. This version uses the HC-6 dynamic microphone, with a wide response from 100 to 12,500 Hz (−3 dB).
Product description
The HC-6 capsule is particularly suited to SSB and hi-fi AM and FM. For contests and DX, simply adjust the radio's equaliser to get a narrower, more punchy voice.
The ear cups are wide and padded, with removable cotton covers: they stay comfortable even after many hours of listening. Audio is optimised for voice on the amateur bands.
Like all ProSet series headsets, it has a phase reversal switch on one speaker: it shifts the audio on one side by 180° and improves intelligibility.
It comes with a 180 cm coiled cable, terminated with a 3.5 mm mono jack for the microphone and a 3.5 mm stereo jack for the headphones; a 6.3 mm stereo adapter is included. A Heil AD-1 series adapter is needed to connect it to the radio.
