USING THE KSM9 Proximity Effect In general, unidirectional microphones progressively boost bass frequencies up to 10 to 15 dB (at 100 Hz) as the microphone approaches 6 mm (1/4 in.) from the sound source. This phenomenon, known as proximity effect, delivers a warmer, more powerful sound. Unfortunately, it usually requires the vocalist to maintain a consistent distance from the microphone in order to avoid changing the low frequency response. The dual-diaphragm design of the KSM9, however, provid

Impedance A minimum load impedance of 800 ohms should be used for maximum signal handling and minimum distortion. The impedance may be as low as 150 ohms, but a reduction in output level and output clipping level will result.
