A Versatile Mid-Size Parabolic Microphone for Professional Audio Capture

June 26, 2024, Janesville, WI – Klover Products, a leader in innovative audio solutions, today announced improvements to its product, the KLOVER MiK 16. This mid-size parabolic microphone offers exceptional long-range audio capture capabilities in a compact, lightweight design. 

Initially developed for use in baseball stadiums where larger models might obstruct fans’ views, the Klover MiK 16 has proven its versatility across various applications. Weighing just three pounds, it excels in mobility while delivering professional-grade audio quality.

The handheld models (KLOVER MiK 16 and KLOVER MiK 16 Broadcast) are now constructed with the new deeper dish that provides a tighter pickup pattern. The new dish provides a pickup pattern very similar to the smaller KLOVER MiK 09 and the larger KLOVER MiK 26.

The stationary models (“KLOVER MiK 16 Hard Mount”, “KLOVER MiK 16 Sound Shield”, and the “KLOVER MiK 16 in Enclosure”) will continue to be constructed with the original dish. The original dish provides a slightly wider pickup pattern than the smaller KLOVER MiK 09 and the larger KLOVER MiK 26. (We can build any model with either dish upon request.)

Key Features of the KLOVER MiK 16:

1. Long-Range Capability: Captures clear audio from distances of 250+ feet

2. Versatile Applications: Ideal for sports broadcasting, college events, press conferences, law enforcement, and presentations

3. Lightweight Design: At only 3 pounds, it offers superior portability

4. Multiple Configurations: Available in handheld, broadcast, hard mount, sound shield, and enclosure versions

5. Two Different  Pickup Patterns: The original dish provides a slightly wider pickup pattern and the new deeper dish design provides a tighter audio focus

“The Klover MiK 16 represents our commitment to delivering high-performance audio solutions in a compact package,” said Paul Terpstra, the President at Klover Products. “Its ability to turn an omnidirectional microphone into a long-range audio capture device makes it an indispensable tool for professionals across various industries.”
