Description

Thank you for choosing the Peavey PVM 46 diamond- coated microphone. The PVM 46 is dynamic hypercardioid and incorporates a neodymium magnet—which has more than twice the sensitivity of conventional microphones— and our diamond-coated diaphragm for flawless transient and frequency response. The hypercardioid polar response is one of

the most popular patterns in the industry for use with acoustic instruments. The slightly narrow on-axis polar pickup affords the vocal user less bleed-over from other instruments or vocals. The rear reflection of the PVM 46 is typically 15 dB less sensitive than the on-axis response. This helps reduce feedback from stage monitors and background noise.
