Neumann BCM 705 Hypercardioid Dynamic Broadcast Microphone - Nickel

Neumann BCM 705 Hypercardioid Broadcast Microphone in Nickel

The BCM 705 is a hypercardioid dynamic broadcast microphone engineered for professional speech applications, delivering the classic "American" announcer voice with exceptional clarity and control. Designed for podcasting, radio, and live streaming, it features a specially tuned dynamic capsule that delivers smooth, detailed sound with excellent speech intelligibility. Its elegant nickel finish and functionally optimized design make it ideal for modern studio setups.

Built for real-world performance, the BCM 705 includes an integrated pop screen and internal elastic suspension to minimize plosives, handling noise, and unwanted vibrations. Its hypercardioid pattern and close-speech optimization help isolate the voice while reducing background noise, even in less-than-perfect acoustic environments. The head grille twists off easily for quick and hygienic cleaning, making it perfect for shared studio use.

Unlike condenser microphones, the BCM 705 operates without phantom power, offering simple setup and reliable performance. Its tailored frequency response enhances vocal presence above 2 kHz while maintaining a controlled low end, ensuring a full but balanced sound. While ideal for speech, it can also handle high sound pressure levels, making it versatile enough for loud vocals, instruments, and broadcast environments.
