Schoeps Stereo-Set CMC 6, MK 4V

Schoeps Stereo-Set CMC 6, MK 4V [139009]

Colette stereo microphone set with two CMC 6 U microphone amplifiers and a matched pair of MK 4V cardioid capsules. Schoeps selects the capsules as a pair and includes a matching certificate.

The MK 4V picks up sound from the side, perpendicular to the microphone body. Its mild high-frequency boost supports applications including orchestral and speech recording. The included O-rings allow radial alignment of the capsules on the amplifiers.
