features include an all metal body for excellent protection from RF interference and high reliability for excellent results under almost all conditions. Ultra smooth response with slight rising on axis frequency characteristic High front to back rejection ratio Transformerless output for low distortion at high operating levels 10 and 20 dB pad Switchable 12 dB roll off at 75 or 150 Hz  The C 451 B is a cardioid only design with a permanently fixed capsule a departure from the previous modular system. The acoustics of the original cardioid capsule, CK 1, are modeled and matched in the current version, producing the unique overall rising frequency characteristics. The rise is no more than 3 dB and is broadly centered around 12 kHz. Its transformerless preamp uses surface mount technology and, therefore is lighter, yet more rugged than its predecessor. Switchable 10 and 20 dB pads are now integrated. Maximum sound pressure levels in the range of 155 dB in the 20 dB sensitivity position can be attained with no greater than 0.5 distortion. A selectable low frequency, or bass roll off option, provides 12 dB per octave attenuation below 75 or 150 Hz. The C 451 B, like its predecessor, is most commonly used in studio and tour sound applications such as miking choirs, drums, percussion and acoustic guitars. It operates on all phantom voltages between 9 and 52 volts. The SA 40 stand adapter and W 90 windscreen are included as standard accessories. SPECIFICATIONS
