  • Notes
  • The Model 51 Sonodyne is a pressure dynamic high-output microphone with wide-range frequency response and typical semi-directional pickup characteristics. It features the Shure Multi-Impedance Switch. You may select the proper operating impedance by merely changing the position of the impedance switch. The "Sonodyne" operates on the principle of a moving-coil element in a magnetic field. A high-flux magnet is used in the magnetic circuit, which together with a specially designed moving system and associated acoustic network, provides high efficiency and smooth, peak-free response. Each microphone is provided with a built-in receptacle and a two-conductor shielded plastic-jacketed cable with microphone plug attached. The rich Pearl-Gray case is functionally designed for improved acoustical performance and modern appearance. Frequency response 60-1 0,000 c.p.s.
