Heil Sound's New Mic and Wireless System at Winter NAMM 2008

Looks, acts, and sounds like a condenser without the added hassles.

The Heil Sound PR-40 is a full-range dynamic microphone designed for broadcast and studio applications. The PR-40 is the only dynamic mic with the ability to reproduce frequencies as low as 28Hz. The unique, copper-wound voice coil uses a mixed metallic magnet structure that creates a magnetic field 10 times stronger than most mics. Coupled with a large 1-1/2", low-mass, quilted aluminum diaphragm, this makes for tremendous low-frequency response and low distortion throughout the PR-40 mic's wide frequency range. A unique dual pop screen design ensures that breath blasts never hit the diaphragm directly. To top it all off, it also comes with an extremely durable aluminum case for protection on the road.

  • Large 1-1/2" aluminum diaphragm
  • Wide frequency response, down to 28Hz

Truly Innovative Mic

I'd been wanting to try Heil mics for some time now, and finally got the chance (or excuse, rather) to buy a PR40. To be perfectly honest, it took some getting used to this mic; its response is flat throughout the majority of the audio spectrum, with a boost in the 3K range. This meant that for the first time, I was hearing how instruments actually sounded, and it caught me off guard. Kick drums are rich and full, with boom and click; bass guitar is clear, clean, precisely what comes out of your amp. My favorite is on acoustic guitars; it made my beat up Washburn sound like a Taylor. None of the harshness of an SM57. Great signal rejection at the null points, although it is very sensitive directly behind the mic; seems to be between cardioid and hypercardioid. Built like a tank, nice carrying case. Includes mic clip, shockmount will cost you. Overall well worth the price.

It's a beauty!!

I was referred to this mic by a co-worker and was lucky enough to do a comparison test at GC. I was blown away with this mic even without any voice processing. It's noise rejection is unbelievable, meaning a minimal amount of soundproofing is needed. It's an awesome mic for the value.
