A taper favorite!  KM 184 cardioid  microphone has become a standard within the global studio community in just a very
 short time.  Because of its optimized mechanical construction and conscious   omission of modularity,  which is  unnecessary in many cases, the “Series 180” is predestined for economy-minded  production and home recording studios.   They come in a folding box with a  windshield and two stand mounts that  permit connection to the microphone body, or the XLR-connector.   The mic is available with either matte black or nickel finish.  Please indicate which finish you want at time of purchase (there is a comment field in the shopping cart system).

The pressure gradient transducers of the KM184 and 185 feature very smooth frequency responses not only for )degree axis, but also for lateral (off-axis) sound incidence.  In typical usage, there is no coloration of sound over a wide pick-up angle.

Although the KM 184 has the same capsule as the KM84, the microphone differs slightly on the 0 degree frequency response:  The KM 184 has a gentle rise at about 9kHz, a characteristic that was introduced very successfully with the KM140.  The result is a tonal balance that is fresher and livelier when compared to the KM84 with its flat frequency response in that band.

The Series 180 microphones operate without any problems, even if the input of following equipment happens to be unbalanced, for example as in some DAT recorders.  The output of the Series 180, as in all Neumann microphones, is balanced and phantom (48V) powered.

The Series 180 is a good choice for all users who look for a high-quality miniature microphone, but do not need the complex, modular KM 100 system, which continues to be part of the Neumann product range.
