About the Electro-Voice PL95 PL95 Dynamic Cardioid Vocal Microphone (60 to 17,000 Hz)
The Electro-Voice PL95 is a dynamic cardioid vocal microphone engineered to deliver reliable, clear speech reinforcement in demanding live sound and public address applications. Featuring a tailored frequency response from 60 Hz to 17,000 Hz, this microphone is optimized to enhance vocal presence and intelligibility, making it an ideal choice for spoken word, presentations, and lead vocals where clarity and feedback resistance are paramount. Its cardioid polar pattern provides focused front pickup while offering substantial rejection of sound from the sides and rear, which is crucial for minimizing ambient noise and controlling feedback in challenging acoustic environments, such as stages with high monitor levels or reverberant rooms.
Housed in a durable, all-metal casing, the PL95 is built to withstand the physical rigors of frequent handling and touring. The integrated shock mount system effectively isolates the capsule from mechanical vibrations and handling noise, ensuring a clean audio signal even when the microphone is passed between users or adjusted on a stand. The robust grille design incorporates internal pop filtering to minimize plosive sounds, while the balanced, low-impedance output ensures clean, noise-free signal transmission over long cable runs. Its versatile design allows it to be used effectively as a handheld vocal microphone or securely mounted on a stand for podium and lectern applications.
Sonic performance is defined by its consistent, present sound signature and excellent gain-before-feedback characteristics. The microphone's ability to provide clear, intelligible vocal reproduction with minimal equalization makes it a trusted tool for sound engineers in corporate, educational, theatrical, and worship settings. As a dedicated vocal microphone, the PL95 offers a straightforward, no-fuss solution for capturing critical speech with reliability and precision, contributing to professional audio reinforcement where the spoken word must be understood above all else.
