HMC 660 X : Superlux HMC 660 X - Field Tested in Battle Zones

At first I was a little dubious when I saw the price of the Superlux HMC 660 X Headset. So I decided to order a set to test it out. I was very impressed when I received it and tested it, I'd been searching for quite some time for a pair of headsets but the prices were just to expensive!

Note:

1. I would recommend buying an extra windshield to cover the existing mic as I found it really helped a lot.

2. This is a condenser mic and needs phantom power, they will not run off a usual 24/48v phantom powered desk, which I found was it's only drawback!

I recommend the Millenium PP2B phantom Power Supply, which is switchable between 12v and 48v (it takes two mics, set the switch to 12v position!) and can also run off two 9v batteries. The batteries lasted a whole event which was over 7hrs of recording.

I use four of these headsets in my setup, (for commentary and monitoring system) and I am so pleased with the outcome.

Here is a link to my youtube channel with them in use.
