From Electro-Voice

The ND86 is a robust, high-performance, large-diaphragm dynamic supercardioid vocal microphone. Designed for excellent acoustic control in even the largest of venues, the ND86 capsule is precisely tuned to deliver present, smooth, and detailed sound, as well as superior isolation from sound on the stage.

  • Excellent acoustic control in even the largest of venues
    Reduction of low-frequency room tone through high-pass filtering and boosts & cuts in key high-mid frequencies separate the voice from the stage wash
  • Large-diaphragm dynamic capsule
    Creates a rich and detailed frequency response
  • Shock-mounted capsule minimizes handling noise
    Low frequency bumps and thumps won’t get into the PA
  • Humbucking coil guards against line hum
    Use with confidence near speaker cabinets and EMF-generating equipment racks
  • Memraflex grille resists denting
    Durable tight-mesh grilles withstand extraordinarily rough treatment
