Made to the highest standards in Europe, Spirit VM and IM dynamics are the first low cost microphones guaranteed to meet the high specifications of our consoles, both at home and on the road. [. . . ] Made to the highest standards in Europe, Spirit VM and IM dynamics are the first low cost microphones guaranteed to meet the high specifications of our consoles, both at home and on the road. In fact, we are so confident that they will meet these high standards that we will recommend them for any other mixer you care to use. Here are just a few reasons why a Spirit dynamic should be your first choice of microphone: 1 Better Sound Quality All Spirit dynamic microphones are designed to give the best possible performance. They are electronically balanced to eliminate those irritating buzzing sounds that can be generated on stage from other electrical equipment. They are low impedance too, which means you can run cable lengths of up to 300 metres (1000 feet) without losing sound quality. Unlike some other mic connectors, a professional locking XLR improves signal quality and guarantees you won't go "dead" in the middle of a performance. 4 Greater Sensitivity Spirit dynamic microphones have greater sensitivity than other mics at this price. As an extra precaution, the VM01S comes with a switch so you can turn it off if feedback occurs. +20 +10 dB 0 ­10 ­20 ­30 10 20 50 100 200 For hands-free performances, you can fit VM01s and VENUEs to a stand using Spirit's dual-thread microphone adaptor. We have also included an applications guide in the box to help you get the best out of your purchase. Spirit mics are supplied in a foam-lined travelling box, protecting them on and off the road.
