Looks, acts, and sounds like a condenser without the added hassles.

The Heil Sound PR40 is a full-range dynamic microphone designed with the ability to reproduce frequencies as low as 28Hz, ideal for live sound, recording, and broadcast applications. The unique, copper-wound voice coil uses a mixed metallic magnet structure that creates a magnetic field 10 times stronger than most mics. Coupled with a large 1-1/2", low-mass, quilted aluminum diaphragm, this makes for tremendous low-frequency response and low distortion throughout the PR40 mic's wide frequency range. A unique dual pop screen design ensures that breath blasts never hit the diaphragm directly.

Heil Sound PR40 Large Diaphragm Multipurpose Dynamic Microphone Features:

• Large 1-1/2" aluminum diaphragm
• Wide frequency response, down to 28Hz
• End fire, cardioid pattern
• Low handling noise
• Natural articulation

An elite microphone that stands alone in the fields of broadcast and studio recording. Call or click to order now!

I am a internet radio host, Compared to condensers, I can never really tell the difference with this mic. The sound is crisp, clear and breathtaking. Sounds great on the air. It is never in its case, Because I am always using it!

A Nearly Perfect Microphone

Posted by SJMarky from San Jose CA on Nov 23, 2007

Experience w/product: I own it

Reviewer's Background: Professional VO Artist

Reviewer's Play Style: VO & Audiobook Recording

After trying numerous condenser mic's, some at twice the price, I keep coming back to the PR40. Clear, rich, clean sound with no post-production futzing around. All the raves about this mic are absolutely justified. For voice-over and narration there is nothing better, except maybe at ten times the price, and even then I'm not so sure. Lacks low-cut and pad switches, but so what? I can't comment on other applications, but for VO this mic is simply unbeatable.

Great microphone

Reviewer's Play Style: rock, reggae, celtic, punk

I have used this mic on kick drum, digeridoo and standup bass. On the bass and digeridoo the bass response was lower than any other mic I have used. On kick drum the lows are tight and well defined, gives great low punch to the kick and still picks up the click of the beater.

This Mic Is A Star!

Posted by UndergroundLab from Southwest Indiana on Jan 15, 2007

Experience w/product: I own it

Reviewer's Background: Recording Engineer

Reviewer's Play Style: Rock, Punk, Metal, Acoustic

I got this mic a few weeks back and it barely spends anytime in it's case. This mic is perfect for voice, and is remarkable on kick drum, guitar, and even bass cabinet. I want three more of these. Clean, crisp (but not too over-defined) high-end, tight low end, easily blows away all the dynamic mics (and a few condensers) that cost hundreds more.

This is a Quality Product

I bought this product after hearing it on another podcast thinking it raised the quality of the audio at a reasonable price point. After using it to record a wide range voice work I decided to try it out to record some vocal tracks, with several different artist I record for, they won't use any other mic now! I know a mic is a very personal choice but your selling yourself short if you don't give the PR-40 serious consideration it is a excellent mic.
