Perfect Path PerfectLock

Locking RCA cable
PerfectLock locking RCA cables are built to eliminate the problem of loose RCA cables. The cables feature a unique design that allows the outer body of the connector to turn and lock down on the port for increased retention. When turned clockwise, an active wedge inside the cable causes the outer ground shield to lock down on the port. This allows for a secure connection on RCA ports of any size with only a quarter turn and the cable is easily removed by turning it counterclockwise.

But the PT2-500 is 500 module sized, for audio professionals who want everything in a rack ready to use, over and over again without buying additional power supplies and multiple racks. It features up to 70dB of high-headroom, low-noise microphone gain.

Beyerdynamic TG-X 930

True condenser mic
Using the capsule of the MC 930 true condenser microphone as a basis and featuring a specially compensated proximity effect in the cardioid capsule, the TG-X 930 achieves neutral transmission of even the subtlest vocal nuances, while a slight treble boost ensures an open and accurate sound. The stainless steel basket with multilayer gauze and additional inner basket provide protection against pop sounds. It is not only easy to clean, but also improves rear-attenuation and increases feedback reduction. In addition, the internal structure of the transducer system makes the microphone resilient to moisture-related problems.
