The combination of the capsule KK 145 with the output stage KM A is only one of the numerous options within the Neumann KM A/D small diaphragm microphone system.

The Neumann system KM A/D is a modular microphone system for even the most demanding applications. Eight different small diaphragm capsules (KK 120 … KK 185) may be combined with either an analog output stage (KM A) or a digital AES 42 output stage (KM D). All components are available in nickel or Nextel black (nx). A comprehensive range of accessories ensures adaptability to the most diverse fields of application.

The KK 145 is a pressure gradient transducer with cardioid characteristic just like the KK 184. However, it has an acoustic bass roll-off in the free field and therefore suppresses LF interference (wind, structure-borne noise). Since proximity effect is a natural feature of pressure gradient microphones, the KK 145 is optimized for a flat frequency response at a recording distance of approximately 15 cm („speech cardioid“).

Features:
- Directional characteristic: cardioid with acoustic bass roll-off in free field
- Part of the modular microphone system KM A/D 
- Comprehensive range of accessories
