TG V96c

Every comparison needs a reference ‚data, specifications, properties that can be measured against. For the vocal microphones of the Touring Gear series, the TG V96 true condenser microphone, the benchmark for live vocals assumes this role.

The strength of the TG V96 lies in its absolutely faithful reproduction - even of the finest nuances and on stage every detail counts. The microphones exterior stands out for its sophisticated design, with a special coated surface that is pleasant to the touch. But it is what's inside that makes the TG V96 into a top-class microphone and makes it stand out with vocalists, professional rental companies and technicians: this real condenser microphone shines with a captivatingly natural sound. The subtle treble boost provides an open, finely detailed and unobtrusive sound pattern.

Further advantages: the TG V96 can be operated with phantom powering down to 11V without affecting the performance. The 5-layer pop protection made from metal gauze of differing mesh sizes and a sintered plate optimally suppresses plosives while significantly improving the rear-attenuation.

The TG V96 is rugged enough for the stage and is supplied with an individual frequency response curve print out. Handcrafted in Germany.
