Heil Sound HM10XD - Dynamic Desk Microphone
The popular HM-10 has been redesigned with our new HC-5x and HC-4x elements mounted on an acoustically tuned chamber to reproduce the popular narrow HC-4 response for DX and a smooth frequency response with the HC-5 capsule. This allows users to use a full-range microphone for everyday chats or instantly switch to a narrow-band DX capsule. A microphone that covers all your communication needs.
The HC-5X (wide) element is ideal for everyday use, anywhere a full-bodied, complete audio is needed. A +6 dB gain at 2,500 Hz, the frequency right in the middle of the human vocal pattern, brings great articulation to the signal. The low-end response starts to drop off from 300 Hz. The -3 dB point of the HC-5X is set from 300 Hz to 8 kHz with the tuned peak of +6 dB at 2,500 Hz.
The new HC-4X (narrow) element has been designed for serious DXers. It puts a +10 dB boost at 2,500 Hz, which is right in the middle of the human speech range. The result is not a pretty sound, but it is certainly penetrating in pileups. The low-end response drops to 600 Hz. The -3 dB point of the HC-4X is set to 600 Hz to 6 kHz with the tuned peak of +10 dB at 2,500 Hz.
The HM-10 XD microphone comes with a microphone clip and a foam windscreen.
A CC-1 adapter is required to interface with the transceiver.
