Electro Voice RE90P-18 Gooseneck podium cardioid condenser Microphone with XLR base, 18-inch gooseneck

The Electro Voice RE90P-18 is a podium microphone that is professionally designed as a phantom-powered “back electret” miniature condenser gooseneck microphone. It comes with a back-electret feature that is capable of providing a greater sensitivity, wider frequency response, and superior immunity from handling noise than a diaphragm-electret microphone. The Electro Voice RE90P-18 is designed mechanically capable of easy, quick mounting to a pulpit, podium or lectern equipped with a bulkhead female XLR-type 3-pin receptacle. For permanent installation, there is a optional fixed (FMK flange-mount kit) and shock-mounted (CPSM shock-mount kit) accessories available to use.

The Electro Voice RE90P-18 is professionally designed for use in sound reinforcement applications. The frequency response is carefully engineered for full-range sound reproduction with natural sound pick-up enhanced for close-up use. The small-diameter gooseneck comes with two supple joints and a rigid center tube. The rigid tube is preventing the unsightly twisting of the gooseneck but it is permitting the user to accurately position the microphone.

The electronics housing has a 3/4-inch diameter base terminated with an XLR-type 3-pin connector which allows the microphone to be plugged directly into an existing panel-mount XLR-type receptacle. The housing is machined steel for ruggedness and superior EMI/RFI attenuation. The electronics’ output circuit utilizes a transformerless balanced construction with a low-output impedance, which is typically 200 ohms. This permits very long cable runs without degrading the microphone performance. The Electro Voice RE90P-18 is designed to be phantom powered with a wide voltage range, 9-52 V dc (DIN Standard 45 596).
