Schoeps CMC 6U
The CMC 6 is our most popular amplifier.
Its electrical properties have set new standards in terms of low distortion levels and common mode rejection (i.e. suppression of interference induced in the microphone cable).
- Description
- Technical Specification
Description
flat frequency response
very low harmonic distortion and noise
works with 12V and 48V phantom power
balanced, low-impedance output
high suppression of interference on the microphone cable
excellent protection against high-frequency radio interference with “RFI Shield”
frequency-independent impedance
signal transmission possible over very long cables
reliable operation even with weak phantom power
symmetrical, transformer- and capacitor-free output stage with a class-A amplifier
above 20 kHz, the signal is attenuated for protection against interference in the ultrasonic range, e.g. through the ultrasonic autofocus of a film camera
