Description
The VT500X-MKII, the hero of the VT500/506 series, does not have an X in its name by chance, because X stands for eXtreme!
Despite being waterproof to IPX-8 (1 m under water for 24 hours), the MKII version no longer makes any compromises - it offers the same sensitivity as a VT500WA!
The VT500X-MKII is the lavalier microphone for extreme production environments! Tropical weather, salt water and dust cannot harm the VT500X-MKII. The microphone is waterproof to IPX-8 (1m under water for 24 hours). The VT500X-MKII also has a particularly robust cable.
Thanks to injection moulding, the microphone is extremely robust and shock-resistant. The cable is moulded directly into the capsule housing, which makes it virtually impossible to pull out.
The RF-protected microphone capsule prevents interference from RF signals and the particularly flexible connection cable ensures that handling noise is eliminated.
The VT500X-MKII is available with various plugs for connection to the most common wireless systems & recorders.
