ALL-METAL HOUSING & BEVELED SPRING STEEL GRILLE: The V3's road-ready design is all metal - no plastic parts here. The chassis' high quality, highly durable zinc alloy is designed to hold up under on-stage stress for years, and the spring steel mesh grille is dent-proof and corrosion-free for perfect reliability. SPECIALIZED VOICE COIL: The dynamic element in the V3 has been custom-developed for a smooth, natural sound on any voice or instrument - and its cardioid capsule design helps efficiently isolate your voice from other on-stage sounds, ensuring plenty of gain before feedback. PATENTED INTEGRATED SHOCK MOUNT: The V3's brand new, patented shockmount efficiently decouples the capsule from mechanical vibration, providing exceptionally low handling noise as compared to other mics in its class. INTERNAL WINDSCREEN: Efficiently reduces unwanted wind noise and plosive pops.
