Audio-Technica BPHS1 Broadcast Stereo Headset with Cardioid Dynamic Boom Microphone

Audio-Technica BPHS1 Broadcast Stereo Headset with Microphone

The BPHS1 is a rugged broadcast stereo headset with closed-back circumaural (around-the-ear) ear cups and a professional boom-mounted microphone that ca be worn on either side. It is designed for news and sports broadcasting, announcing and interviews.


The headset's microphone has a cardioid polar pattern tailored for pickup of speech with maximum voice intelligibility over a wide range of frequencies. It is more sensitive to sound originating directly in front of the element, making it useful in reducing pickup of unwanted sounds. The flexible gooseneck boom swivels for easy positioning on either the right or left side. The dual earphones offer an extended frequency response of 20-20,000 Hz and smooth, natural sound reproduction. At the heart of each earpiece, a 40 mm neodymium driver offers impressive power handling for high maximum sound pressure levels. Generously padded circumaural ear cups provide acoustic isolation and long-wearing comfort; the adjustable headband is also crafted and cushioned for listening comfort.

The headset includes a user-replaceable detachable 3.3 m (10.8') cable terminating in two output connectors, one each for the microphone and headphone: the microphone output is a 3-pin XLRM-type connector; the headphones' output is a 3-conductor ¼" connector. Three windscreens are also included to protect against noise from breath and wind.
