Heil Sound Microphones

Founded in 1966 by Bob Heil, Heil Sound quickly made its mark on the live sound industry with artists like The Grateful Dead, The Who, Joe Walsh and Vintage King client Peter Frampton. Scores of touring artists turned to Heil Sound in the 60s and 70s for the necessary gear and continue to do so today. Internationally recognized by musicians and industry executives alike, Heil Sound won the first ever AES Pioneer Award as well as the Parnelli Award and, to this day, is the first ever audio manufacturer invited to display at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. In 2007, Bob Heil traveled to the Hall of Fame with a collection of historically important audio gear created by Heil Sound, including the first modular console, his custom quadraphonic mixer and the very first Heil Talk Box. Vintage King Audio offers an expansive array of Heil Sound Microphones, including the PR35, Mic Pro Plus, Heil Sound Heritage and several others.

The Heil PR 35 has been designed for commercial broadcast, recording and live sound reinforcement applications which require a smooth flat response over a wide frequency range. The PR 35 was designed around the acclaimed PR 30 element and incorporates a sorbothane shock mount to give the best possible results.   The PR 35 achieves its exceptional performance by using a special magnet structure and a large aluminum 1 1/2" low mass voice coil assembly. A carefully wound and placed hum bucking coil allows the PR 35 to be used close to video monitors without unwanted hum or buzz. Special attention has been paid to the phasing plug assembly with equally placed ports that sense audio from behind the source. It then enters them out of phase thus producing a very linear cardioid pattern. This reduces the proximity effect while achieving the extreme articulation across its smooth 40 Hz- 18 kHz frequency response. The new Heil element can be used in extreme high sound pressure levels and is immune to overload conditions. It produces a beautifully smooth audio response without the inconvenience of phantom or outside d.c. powering.   The PR 35 is equipped with a three position roll off switch. The first position is flat, the second position rolls off at approximately -3 dB and the last position rolls off at approximately -6 dB.   The cardiod pattern offers the greatest rejection of unwanted audio at 180 degrees off axis, which is directly behind the microphone; there is virtually no off-axis coloration.   Supplied with a microphone clip that mounts to any 5/8"- 27 mic thread. It also comes with an aluminum carrying case.   For amateur radio a CC-1 XLR cable is required to interface with a transceiver.
