• External shock mount for high mechanical-noise rejection
• Miniature gooseneck for precise positioning near the user’s mouth
• Microphone arm provides choice of left or right-hand use

A transducer shock mount reduces handling noise to a minimum. The moisture shield prevents perspiration from penetrating into the transducer element,ensuring a high degree of humidity protection for the microphone.

As used by Chris Dennis of DM Music
“I use the C520 for gigs all over the place and this mic is solid and reliable every time. Once I put it on I just forget about it and get on with singing – and the vocals are very important for the work I do.
I have had complements from sound engineers as to how good it is for vocal clarity, warmth and feedback rejection… but I still get the odd ‘Madonna or Brittney’ jibe!”
