    Heil PR-40 Details
    Bob Heil introduces his incredible Heil PR-40 featuring the new technology of the Heil DM 6 dynamic element with response down to 28 Hz. and stays perfectly flat up through 18kHz. with a beautiful mid range rise giving this new microphone gorgeous vocal articulation. It truly outperforms many of the current microphones that all use at least 30 year old technology. Gorgeous craftsmanship, high quality components and a beautiful champagne luster finish with the most articulate, natural sound from a dynamic, the Heil PR-40 will soon become the sound industry standard.

    In many blind A/B tests in a Burbank rehearsal hall, the Heil lab, and several major studios around the U.S. , this revolutionary Heil dynamic microphone exhibits amazingly clear, clean, natural sound that equals and surpasses many of the cheap condenser models that have recently flooded the U.S. market. The Heil PR-40 uses a very unique copper wound voice coil with a neodymium magnet structure which creates a magnetic field ten times stronger than the traditional magnets of other microphones. Coupling to a low mass quilted aluminum diaphragm exhibits the tremendous low frequency response and low distortion throughout it's wide frequency range.

    The dynamic Heil PR-40 looks like, feels like and acts like a condenser in every respect. No more phantom power. No more background noise and you now have the absolute quietest microphone - ever. It truly outperforms the old industry standards costing 5 to 6 times more.

    Heil Sound has established a reputation for innovation during the past 37 years in the live concert sound market, custom home theater industry and building the highest quality microphones for the amateur radio and communications market. Heil now enters the commercial broadcast and recording studio market with technological breakthrough products never before achieved or equaled.

    What We Think
    "Searching for a kick drum mic for your studio?  Just buy the PR40 and you're done. Save yourself all the wasted time shooting out kick mics only to keep arriving at the conclusion that the PR40 gives you an accurate picture of your drum with little to no eq while also allowing your kick to live in the midrange of your mix without being boxy or annoying. It also happens to be quite phenomenal on bass cabinets, too. AND it's a pretty outrageous mic for broadcasters. The PR40 is a new classic that won't be going anywhere - period. Go ahead and get with the program and let your recordings be better for it."

    Awesome Kick Drum Mic January 13, 2010
    Reviewer: Mark Thornton from Bellingham, WA United States  
    I bought this mic looking for a vocal mic that could be used as a multipurpose mic around the studio.  What I ended up with was just that, and the best kick drum mic ever! Plenty of low end and smack.  I also use it a lot on bass cab.  This is the most "condenser" sounding dynamic mic I've heard.  Definitely a must have.

    Amazing with electric guitars... February 18, 2009
    Reviewer: chris holtmeier from Lavista, NE United States  
    I pair this with an SM57. Can be overly scooped sounding on its own, but combines nicely to make a larger than life, modern rock or metal tone. I now prefer this to an LDC/dynamic combo for heavy guitars.
