phoneyb Posted December 13, 2002 Report Share Posted December 13, 2002 I've seen many suggestions in this forum for binaural mics for live recordings, but very few specific recommendations. Has anyone had good results with a particular set of mics / battery box and where is a good place to pick them up? The websites I've seen seem to vary from $60 -$80 in price. Comments? Thanks for your input! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jukebox Posted December 13, 2002 Report Share Posted December 13, 2002 I got mine from minidisco.com and are very pleased with them. They are the Sound Professionals Standard Binaural Microphones - US$69.95 I also have a Sound Pros Mini Battery Module w/ Bass Roll-off - US$69.95 And put it all in an Otter Box 2000 MD Case - Black - US$14.45 I had to drill 2 holes for the mics, but its well worth it. I recorded the Goo Goo Dolls 2 weeks ago and the set up worked perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jukebox Posted December 13, 2002 Report Share Posted December 13, 2002 A word to the wise: :shock: DO NOT cut these wires and think you can just solder them back together! It cost me another set of mics to try and shorten the cord. The cord is wrapped very similar to coaxial cable and nearly impossible to reconnect.

highlandsun Posted December 22, 2002 Report Share Posted December 22, 2002 I bought a binaural set from Sound Professionals 5 years ago, mounted in eyeglass holders. It's been working great. Actually I had a problem with a loose connection 2 years ago, and I sent it back to them to be fixed. They sent me a new set for free. Those guys are terrific, and their product is terrific. The sound quality is awesome, it's really like being there again for the concerts I've recorded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
