Natural surround sound with musical depth
The Schoeps MK 2H Stereo set is a classic tool for anyone who not only wants to reproduce space, but also tell a musical story. This Set is aimed at sound engineers, classical music producers, film sound professionals and discerning musicians who are looking for natural spatiality, depth and detail without making any compromises.
Balanced frequency response for realistic room acoustics
The MK 2H omnidirectional capsules are designed to capture sound as it really behaves in the room. They really come into their own at medium recording distances around the reverberation radius. The frequency response remains balanced and open without being analytical or harsh. A subtle acoustic treble boost above 6 kHz compensates for the natural treble losses of diffuse sound and ensures an airy, realistic sound image. Strings, piano, choir or orchestra benefit from this unobtrusive clarity, which makes the room audible without imposing on it.
Ideal for AB and Decca Tree
The MK 2H Stereo Set is predestined for AB stereophony and Decca Tree applications. The omnidirectional polar pattern delivers robust bass imaging, excellent depth and impressive spatial coherence. In combination with classical recording techniques, a wide, stable stereo image is created that remains transparent even with complex arrangements. Anyone who understands the room as part of the instrument will find a reliable tool here.
CMC 6 microphone amplifier with maximum sovereignty
The two CMC 6 microphone amplifiers form the technical foundation of this set. They operate with extremely low distortion, constant transmission and a fully balanced, transformerless output stage in A B mode. Whether 12 V or 48 V phantom power, the CMC 6 automatically recognizes the supply and adapts to it without any changes to the sound. Even with long cable runs or a weak supply, the signal remains stable and interference-free. The integrated RFI shield reliably protects against RF interference, as can occur in film sound or with modern cameras.
Low noise, level stability and musicality
With a very low inherent noise and high sound pressure limit, the Schoeps MK 2H Stereo Set is suitable for the finest quiet passages as well as for dynamically demanding recordings. The omnidirectional capsules react quickly, but always remain controlled and natural. Transients are reproduced cleanly, without sharpness, and the low frequency range appears deep and stable, even at greater microphone distances.
Sophisticated accessories for everyday professional use
Set includes matching SG 20 microphone clamps with sturdy metal housing and removable cable clip. The B 5 foam windscreens offer reliable protection for omnidirectional microphones even in light winds with minimal sound impairment. The Set is complemented by Velcro cable ties and a custom-fit case that facilitates safe transport and neat organization in everyday life.
