Description
Super-Lite Headband Mic with Excellent Anti-Feedback Characteristics.
This medium-light tan flesh-tone mic weighs only ½ oz. and has supports that hook around both ears to keep the microphone very steady just where it needs to be - at the corner of the mouth very close to the lips for maximum output.
Compared to "stage mics" that are similar in appearance, the Super-Lite Headband Mic is much less expensive but should provide much better performance for people with weak voices. "Stage mics" are omni-directional - made to pick up surrounding sound as well as the user’s voice, but the S-L Headband Mic is a noise-cancelling microphone which does an excellent job of avoiding feedback and picking up the user’s voice but not the sounds from others talking, TV sets, etc.
Also the Super-Lite Headband Mic has a narrower frequency response when compared to other similar looking microphones so it is not as likely to pick up a lot of hissy air noises when used by someone with a whisper or whispy voice.
The mic boom is very thin and easily adjustable in length to bring the microphone to the proper position. It can be adjusted to a comfortable fit for long periods of time. The right-angled 1/8" monaural plug is less vulnerable to damage than a plug that stands straight up. The 42" cord is thin and light weight and can easily be tucked into or under clothing, but it is easier to damage the cord if it is caught in doors or drawers or handled too roughly than it is with a heavier cord, so we would say that the mic cord must be handled with a little greater care than our other mic’s cords and will not take much abuse.
This wonderfully light weight mic can be adjusted for comfortable fit for long periods of time, but it requires a little more fitting and adjusting than our Hi-Gain 3-Way Headband Mic and other mics and is most suitable for use by one person rather than for constant readjusting to pass from one user to another. And it is not easily adjustable to very large or very small heads.
All in all, the Super-Lite Headband Mic will not provide quite the level of amplification that the Hi-Gain 3-Way Headband Mic does and will not be as easily and quickly adjustable, it will do a great job for many people - especially those who want to wear an amplifier at chest level or whose positioning difficulties mean that it is difficult to separate the microphone very far from the speaker.
