Be Heard Without Being Seen with the Crown PCC-160 Supercardioid Stage Floor Boundary Microphone

The Crown PCC-160 is a professional boundary microphone and an industry-standard choice for stage-floor applications. Its low-profile design allows discreet placement while the supercardioid polar pattern provides excellent gain before feedback and helps reject unwanted sound from the rear. Crown's Phase Coherent Cardioid (PCC) technology minimizes phase interference caused by surface reflections, resulting in a wide, smooth frequency response. A bass-tilt switch allows the low-frequency response to be tailored for different applications, while the rugged housing is built to withstand demanding stage use.
