PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The?PCC170?from?Crown Audio?is a half-supercardioid boundary microphone designed for use in conferences, boardrooms, courtrooms etc. The supercardioid polar pattern provides a highly directional pick up, minimizing noise and ambiance at the off-axis sections of the microphone. A wide frequency response of 50 Hz to 20 kHz accentuates the midrange frequencies associated with the human voice while minimizing low frequency noise. A “Bass Tilt” switch further eliminates low frequency hum and noise. The microphone is powered via 12 to 48V phantom power source, such as a Crown PH-1A or PH-4B power supplies.
Super-Cardioid Polar Pattern
The super-cardioid polar pattern is effective in minimizing noise at the off-axis sections of the microphone, providing high gain before feedback and pick up at long range.
Phase Coherent Pick Up
Although mounted on a surface, direct and reflected signals are reproduced in phase.
Wide Frequency Response
The 50 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response accentuate frequencies associated with the voice, while minimizing low frequency noise.
Bass Tilt Switch
A Bass Tilt switch further minimizes noise born at low-frequencies.

Taking care of business
The PCC170 and the PCC170 SW are professional boundary layer microphones with supercardioid polar pattern to minimize background noise and feedback. The microphones are designed for use on boardroom tables or lecterns. Both microphones provide a bass-tilt switch, allowing the user to tailor the low-end response and reduce subsonic noise. The included RFI suppression ensures trouble-free operation even with active cell phones nearby.
The PCC170 SW has a silent-operating programmable membrane switch that can be configured for touch on/off, momentary on or momentary off. For easy installation, both microphones offer an XLR connector and a detachable cable.
