Bogen GCU250
Bogen GCU250 Condenser Gooseneck Microphone
Bogen’s GCU250 is a high performance, partially-rigid, adjustable gooseneck condenser microphone capable of meeting the stringent demand of today’s conference and PA systems. It is an intelligent choice for sound reinforcement applications. It has an integral XLR male connector mounting base and requires a 9V – 52V DC phantom power source. The GCU250 is designed to minimize intrusion between the user and the audience.
Bogen’s selection of high-quality, portable microphones offer clear, natural, intelligible sound. Engineered for accurate sound reproduction, each microphone is ruggedly constructed to withstand the demands of sound installations. A variety of types and styles are available including gooseneck, desktop, handheld, wireless handheld/lavaliere, overhead hanging, and surfacemount microphones. Both contemporary and traditional designs provide accurate response and dependable performance, with optimum clarity.
Microphones are transducers, or energy converters, which sense acoustic energy (sound waves) and convert them into electrical energy signals. There are two common methods for microphones to do this: 1) the electromagnetic technique used in dynamic type microphones, and 2) the electrostatic technique used in electret condenser type microphones. Dynamic Dynamic microphones consist of a coil of wire attached to a diaphragm that sits in a magnetic field that is created by a small magnet. When sound waves cause the diaphragm to vibrate, the motion of the coil within the magnetic field creates electrical signals that can be amplified or recorded. These types of microphones produce a smooth, extended response, and provide good linearity. Their output level is high enough to work directly with most microphone inputs and have an excellent signal-to-noise ratio. They are rugged, reliable, and do not require batteries or external power supplies to operate.
