Level 3 Wind Instruments 94 Percent

I use this mic to record string and wind (brass mostly) instruments.  The different patterns make it effective in a variety of spaces depending on whether you want to reject other sounds or include reflections.  Versatile and great sound quality.

I like wind instruments. This is that and so much more. Nice features make playing sound like the real thing. Tried it all but haven't used it as a midi controller yet

One of the best (some would say the best...) microphone in the business, particularly for vocals and lower sound level instruments (acoustic guitar, flute, etc...). Extremely sensitive, very low noise. Picks up the tiniest detail. The switchable polar pattern, integrated low cut filter and 10 dB attenuation pad means you can use them for anything in any situation, couple of switches and you are done. Just did a simultaneous recording with my Schoeps on a flute and these sounded even better, if that was at all possible. More velvet and refinment in the mid tones. You could immediately tell why they are unsurpassed on voice. If you can afford it and don't mind how large they are, this is the quintessential studio mic you need in your arsenal.

The overall sound signature is amazing. It is a warm neutral signature. Its presented with a flat profile, all instruments and voices are natural. The clarity, depth, imaging, separation of instruments are awesome. These are on the level of the Senn HD 800s, maybe better depending on the listener. I am audio engineer and I use these for my work. It will need a high power quality amp to get the best out of them. However they still give you good sound without an amp, I am not going to sit here and say its an absolute must, like most reviews and websites say, its just silly to say they don't put out sound unless you get an amp. The type of amp matters though. As I started with the THX 789, it was ok, but it was below others price more when tried. I upgraded to a singular amp, the sound changed quite a bit and better. I also use them with my Onkyo Denon AVR-X2700H, it brought out the depth and separation of instruments to a whole new level. I would say there veryfew headphones that can compete sound wise and technically at $1899 and below, they compete in the $3000k range with Hifiman He1000se. Heddphone do need sometime to break in at least 20 hrs. I recommend if price is not an issue as if you buy these theres no need to buy $3k to $4k priced headphones, unless you have specific taste as in bright or warm sounds, very little difference, unless you creaping in the $5k range.

3 items that do the job.

100 percent satisfied,

3' is a short cable Although this does work well.

3 filters together in a great travel pouch.

3rd cover I have purchased; love these.

The adapter is exactly what I need for my Baikal IZH 94 combination gun. Really easy to install and stay put really strong. I put a 40 mm Scope on the gun and the Picatinny rail gives a multiple choice of positions and I have enough clearance that I think even a 50 mm will fit without problem. Really happy with the adapter and from the fast service from B&H photo. Will recommend to everyone to do buisness with them.
