Heil PR-20 Details
From the Professional division of Heil Sound, Ltd., we present the Heil PR-20, a professional quality dynamic cardioid microphone designed for commercial broadcast, recording and live sound reinforcement applications which require a smooth flat response over a wide frequency response. The Heil PR-20 has a comparable sound to the finest condenser microphone because of it's wide frequency response, excellent transient response and low IMD. Following a 20 year Heil tradition, the new Heil PR-20 exhibits gorgeous natural speech articulation without having to apply heavy electronic equalization. Truly one of the most natural and pleasant sounding dynamic microphones, ever.

The Heil engineers have created a very rugged microphone with superior low handling noise by mounting the very wide frequency response dynamic element into a special sorbothane shock mount system. This low handling noise and exceptional lack of bass-boosting proximity effect makes it ideal for professional uses.

The Heil PR-20 achieves it's exceptional performance by using a special magnet structure and a large aluminum 1 1/8" low mass voice coil assembly. Special attention has been paid to the phasing plug assembly with equally placed ports that sense audio from behind the source entering them out of phase thus producing a very linear cardioid pattern and reduces the proximity effect while achieving the extreme articulation across it's smooth 50 - 18,000 Hz. frequency response. The new Heil 'PROLINE' element is usable in extreme high sound pressure levels and is immune to overload conditions as a condenser usually will be. It produces a beautifully smooth audio response without the inconvenience of phantom or outside d.c. powering.

The cardiod pattern offers the greatest rejection at 180 degrees off axis which is directly behind the microphone and creates virtually no off-axis coloration while providing the greatest possible rejection of unwanted audio.

The Heil PR-20 professional microphone is delivered to you in a classy leatherette carrying bag including the mic clip and acoustical foam windscreen.

You owe it to yourself to hear this mic! July 7, 2009
Reviewer: David DeLaRosa from Hendersonville, NC United States  
I did my on-line research and figured, I can send it back... so why not try it?
When my PR-20 arrived I did a-b tests with all my other favorite mics, and was blown away.  Priced like the standard dynamic, it sounds like the studio condensers you wish you could afford.  It is a huge sound, resonant, sexy... and you can work it like a dynamic:  back off for blending harmonies; kiss it to sound like God.
This is, finally, a different technology, and it is astounding!
No, it is not the best acoustic guitar mic, and you will have to experiement with other applications (Heil makes other mics too), but for vocals, I swear, try this one!

Thank you for your feedback on this review. We appreciate your input!
