M 160 — Dynamic Double-Ribbon Microphone 5
EN
INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
Connection
� The M 160 is equipped with a 3-pin XLR connector.
You can connect it to any microphone input using a
suitable microphone cable.
� Caution: Carelessly laid cables are a trip hazard.
People can be injured and the microphone
can be damaged.
Operation
� The two orange dots on the ring around the micro-
phone grille designate the longitudinal axis of the
two ribbons. When setting up the microphone on
tripods, make sure that this axis runs veically.
� Position the microphone so that monitor speakers
and other sound sources radiate laterally from
behind (angle approx. 110°) onto the microphone.
In this way, due to the noise cancellation of 25 dB at
110°, lateral sound reflections and diurbing ambient
noise are eectively suppressed.
� The M 160 is supplied with the MA-CL 25 microphone
clamp for tripods with 3/8" thread. For tripods with
a 5/8" thread, you can unscrew the threaded inse.
� Caution: A tripod with an insecure and can fall
over and damage a microphone mounted
on it. Make sure the tripod ands able.

� Use a so cloth moiened with water to clean the
microphone sha and grille.
� Make sure that no water enters the microphone.
