Relevant Product Features

The KK 133 capsule employs Neumann's free-field equalized cardioid design, producing a balanced frequency response in direct sound while maintaining smooth off-axis characteristics. This results in transparent audio capture with excellent localization and minimal proximity effect, making it ideal for orchestras, choirs, acoustic instruments, drum overheads, piano, broadcast, and speech applications.

The KM A analog output stage operates from standard 48 V phantom power and incorporates a transformerless circuit for exceptionally clean audio performance. A switchable 10 dB pre-attenuation allows the microphone system to handle sound pressure levels up to 150 dB without distortion.

As part of Neumann's modular KM microphone system, the KK 133 capsule can be detached from the KM A output stage and remotely positioned using compatible extension cables and accessories, providing installation flexibility for concert halls, broadcast studios, and complex recording setups.

Manufactured in Germany, the KK 133 with KM A delivers the precision, reliability, and long-term consistency expected from Neumann's professional microphone portfolio.
