3.1. Headphones
The headphones are a semi-open design. While it
allows some ambient sound to pass through the ear-
cups so you will not be totally isolated from your
surroundings, it affords a certain amount of pro-
tection, particularly at high frequencies.
The earcups are ergonomically, flexibly suspended.
The ear pads are replaceable and easy to clean
(order no. 2456Z3201).
3.2. Microphone
The electret microphone rests in a shock mount that
suppresses vibrational noise, particularly cable noise.
Align the gooseneck to place the microphone aprox.
3 to 5 cm (1 to 2 inches) in front of the left corner of
your mouth. This placement prevents pop noise and
provides optimum efficiency.
The microphone has a cardioid pickup pattern. It
picks up sound from in front of it (your words) and
suppresses sounds coming from behind it.
