Nady HM-20U Unidirectional Condenser Headset Mic Graces Craniums

May 20, 2008
Nady HM-20U Headset Mic

Nady adds another headworn condenser mic to their repertoire with the HM-20U. It's a unidirectional headset microphone that is designed for vocals, handling both singing and speaking applications in noisy environments.

It is designed with hands-free usage and low visibility in mind -- it even comes in beige to be even more incognito.

Nady designed the HM-20U with a wide variety of users in mind. Rarer singing musicians (like drummers or keyboardists), vocal / dance performers, DJs, TV announcers, public speakers and aerobics instructors may all find this handy -- or more accurately, handless*.

  • Full-frequency, uni-directional electret condenser mic
  • Warm, transparent audio and maximum feedback rejection
  • Durable, thin metal frame easily molded to any user
  • Ergonomic design and comfortable fit with or without glasses, hat, or headphones (also no hairstyle hindrance)**
  • Tiny 5 x 8 mm lightweight capsule for hours of comfortable use
  • Two sizes of foam windscreen included to reduce wind/popping noise
  • Extendable, fully adjustable boom for optimum mic capsule placement
  • Available with mini-XLR, 3.5mm phono plug (fits most standard wireless bodypack transmitters) or with standard XLR adapter for all wired and wireless applications

* I apologize. That was terrible.
** Nady's claim, not mine. Kids these days and their ridiculous hairstyles. When I was in school, people would get beat up for having some of the hairdos I've seen. Do people still say "hairdos?"
