Description

The KMS 104, KMS 104 plus, and KMS 105 microphones were designed to accurately capture the human voice in challenging live performance situations. These microphones are widely recognized as the industry standard for high-quality stage performances. With their exceptional sound quality and linear frequency response, performers can rely on these microphones to provide optimal conditions on stage. They have low self-noise and produce a clear and natural sound, making them the perfect choice for personal monitoring systems.

The KMS 104 and KMS 104 plus have a cardioid capsule pattern that effectively reduces background noise. The KMS 105, with its supercardioid pattern, further minimizes off-axis sounds within a 180° range. The KMS 104 plus, in comparison to the KMS 104, has enhanced low-frequency response. Through close collaboration with professional musicians and extensive testing, the KMS 104 plus has been specifically tailored for female rock and pop vocals. This allows users to choose the microphone version that suits their specific needs.

Acoustic characteristics:

The KMS series microphones use high-quality condenser capsules, ensuring accurate reproduction of the nuances in the human voice. Compared to dynamic microphones typically used on stage, the KMS series offers exceptional transparency, a wider frequency range, and precise transmission of the front sound signal.

The microphones feature carefully tuned acoustic filters and transformerless impedance converters, capable of handling high sound pressure levels without distortion, even during intense and explosive sounds. Hissing and sibilant sounds are reproduced naturally, a characteristic unique to condenser microphones. The acoustic filters also help maintain the appropriate polar pattern, even in the low-frequency range, providing the KMS 104/KMS 104 plus and KMS 105 with excellent feedback rejection when used on stage with acoustic systems.

Electrical characteristics:

Due to their close proximity to the sound source, the KMS series microphones use electronic circuits within the capsules to compensate for the proximity effect. Additionally, the microphones are equipped with high-pass filters that attenuate frequencies below 120 Hz (measured in free field) to reduce unwanted low-frequency noise. The maximum sound pressure level of the KMS series microphones is 150 dB.

The low self-noise level of these microphones, not exceeding 18 dB-A, allows for increased sensitivity during recordings. Even at a significant distance from the sound source, the microphones maintain a high signal-to-noise ratio. This enables performers to hold the microphone further away from their mouths, giving them the freedom to move around the stage without sacrificing sound quality. The transformerless output stages ensure signal transmission over long cables without any loss of quality.

Mechanical characteristics:

Stage microphones demand durability, which is why the KMS 104/KMS 104 plus and KMS 105 have robust metal housings that protect against structural noise. The microphones also feature sturdy steel wire protective screens that can be easily removed for cleaning the acoustic filters.

Impedance, Ohms

No higher than 32 Ohms for smartphone headphones. When using a good player or amplifier, it can be up to 100 Ohms. For stationary models you should coordinate the impedance with the amplifier power

Microphone polar pattern

Omnidirectional, cardioid and supercardioid. It determines the sensitivity of the microphone to sound relative to the direction or angle, i.e. shows how well the microphone "hears" sound from different sides

Glossary of terms
cardioid

The polar pattern of the microphone that picks up the sound in front of it.

Microphone type
condenser

A metal membrane consisting of plates (a condenser) oscillates under the influence of sound air flows converting a sound wave into an electromagnetic one.
