SCHOEPS SR 1450 C BOC

Product overview

The SCHOEPS SR 1450 C BOC is an active extension tube that combines a 1200 mm tube with a 250 mm gooseneck in one continuous piece.

Active extension tubes are placed between the capsule and the microphone amplifier. This lets microphones be placed unobtrusively in the orchestra without interfering with sight lines. At the head end of the SR 1450 BOC a gooseneck lets the capsule be aimed as desired; the other end has a threaded receptacle for the microphone amplifier, e.g. a CMC 1.

A complete assembly consists of an MK capsule (e.g. MK 22, MK 4 or MK 41) with a B 1 D or B 5 D pop screen, the SR 1450 BOC and a CMC microphone amplifier (CMC 1 U, CMC 1 L or CMC 6 U). It is attached to an STR vertical support rod of any length with the included RG 8 swivel joint, and the STR stands on a BF 250 weighted floor stand, optionally on an SM 270 foam mat for further isolation from floor vibrations. Originally a special-order product, the stand has become a standard item.
