The classic condenser microphone

The Neumann KM 184 is a dependable, transparent-sounding small-diaphragm condenser microphone. Thanks to its non-modular design, the microphone is available at an attractive price without sacrificing any of Neumann's renowned engineering, and its combination of a frequency-independent cardioid polar pattern and a smooth linear frequency response provides effective protection against feedback. With genuine 28-bit resolution and an impressive impulse response, the KM 184 is an excellent choice for a wide range of applications in both studios and on stage. The slight treble boost of approximately 3dB between 5 and 15kHz makes the recorded signal sound fresh and easier to integrate into the mix. The pair on offer here is perfectly matched and is therefore particularly suitable for stereo miking. The only difference between the KM 184 mt model here and the classic nickel-finish KM 184 is the mt's matte black finish.

The figures don't lie

As the successor to the legendary KM 84, the Neumann KM 184 features the same capsule design as the earlier classic. Unlike its predecessor, however, the KM 184 benefits from a slight treble lift around 9kHz for added brightness. In the low end, the frequency response of the microphone exhibits a slight roll-off, which starts at 100Hz and reaches an attenuation of 3dB at around 80Hz; at 20Hz the attenuation reaches 10dB. However, as the KM 184 is a pressure gradient receiver, artists can take advantage of the proximity effect by moving the microphone closer to the sound source to boost the bass. The low impedance of the output stage (50 ohms!) allows long cable runs of up to 300 metres without any loss in sound quality. With a peak level of 138dB (0.5% distortion), the KM 184 is extremely level-resistant, and the field leakage transmission factor is only 15mV/Pa.

The KM 184 can do it all

The transparent sound of the KM 184 is particularly suitable for miking acoustic instruments, from concert grand pianos, strings, and woodwinds to acoustic guitars, drumkits, and other percussion instruments. Although the KM 184 is not specifically optimised for the human voice, it is often used for Classical vocals and whenever sonic authenticity is paramount. Thanks to the mic's frequency-independent cardioid polar pattern, this perfectly calibrated pair is especially recommended for stereo or surround sound recordings with precise spatial imaging, for example using AB, XY, or ORTF configurations. However, the KM 184 is also a faithful companion as a support microphone for individual instruments or sections of an orchestra.

About Neumann

Georg Neumann GmbH was founded in Berlin in 1928 - and is certainly one of the most famous brands of microphones in the world. However, this is not the company's only sphere of activity. For many years, the versatile inventor and pioneer Georg Neumann was also involved with vinyl record cutting machines and the development of rechargeable batteries. The technology he developed is still the basis for this now crucial and rapidly expanding market. What is more, for many years the company built highly personalised sound control systems for broadcast studios/theatres and concert halls, and for several years also studio monitors. In 1991, Neumann became part of the Sennheiser group of companies, and in 1999 was the first German company to receive the Technical Grammy for their overall technical achievements.

A focus on quality without the frills

The Neumann KM184 stereo set dispenses with the frills associated with more expensive microphones – such as changeable polar patterns, pad switches, and low-cut filters. Instead, by focusing on the essentials, Neumann is able to offer a stereo pair of microphones that are unrivalled in terms of sound quality at this price point. This philosophy extends to the included accessories, which include two wind shields and two clips for mounting the mics on stands. The mics and accessories can all be securely stored and transported in their own deluxe wooden box, which is lined with precisely shaped foam. Wherever it's used, whatever it's used for, the KM 184's finely detailed and realistic sound reproduction makes it the perfect microphone for making recordings where no technical sound colouration is required or desired.

In the spotlight

Frequency-independent polar pattern

The directional characteristic of a microphone refers to the way a microphone "listens" as well as how well it rejects sound from other directions. Depending on the type of microphone, these characteristics can change depending on the frequency. For example, in large-diaphragm condenser microphones with a cardioid polar pattern, the pickup pattern typically becomes more focused at higher frequencies. However, a unique feature of Neumann's KM 184 is that its cardioid pattern remains consistent across all frequencies. This is highly beneficial when recording multiple instruments in a group, as the sound remains consistent without incurring distortion from different directions – only the volume varies due to the cardioid pattern's on-axis bias.

Het perfecte werkpaard

Deze set gekocht om in akoestisch grote ruimtes minder omgevingsgeluid op te pikken. De KM184 voldoet hier aan en heeft een goed gebalanceerde klank voor koren en instrumentalisten. Ook ingezet als spot microfoon met prima resultaat. Natuurlijke klank met iets meer presence dan bijvoorbeeld een Schoeps set maar daar is het prijsverschil ook naar.

Great microphones, but different than KM84 Predecessor

Anoniem 21.03.2016

Have had a chance to use the mics in several different recording situations. Close miking an acoustic guitar in a dry room and in NOS configuration in a concert hall on a piano and soprano soloist.

The mics are fantastic quality! There is absolutely no self noise to speak of. They are crystal clean and extremely sensitive. That being said, it is important to realize that this type of response is not always what you want. There is only a slight HF lift but the the capsules are so sensitive that they seem to feature the high-frequency content of every sound source.
Where a Cello a French horn or a Steinway piano in a live hall may benefit from this, other sources like a hard strummed guitar or a very bright soprano will have a tendency to have the warmth of their mid and low-mid frequency range be over-shadowed by this hyper-real sparkle. An example of this is hearing too much of the pick noise on a strummed guitar and not enough of the tone. And this delicate balance can't easily be fixed by EQ.

However in a mix, this may be the thing you need!
I am definitely keeping these mics.
