Connbox

The Connbox has been designed to isolate and greatly reduce handling and cable-borne noise to the microphone. An effective and ready-to-use solution to connection problems, the Connbox will enable professional sound recorders to achieve clean, high quality audio recordings.

Acting as a transition connector and anchor point for the microphone tail, the lengths of cable are set to work perfectly with the microphone fitted in the windshield, without touching the internal surface of the basket. The soft cable then greatly reduces the transmission path of cable-borne noise, thus further reducing cable rumble.

The Connbox is made of the highest quality components, using Gold 3-pin Neutrik X-series XLR connectors, and an ultra soft Mogami star-quad cable.

Additional specifications

Please note that while all our "optional accessories" Connboxes feature a detachable XLR tail, Connboxes supplied as part of our windshield kits come with a XLR tail hard-wired to the box. However, for Windshield 7 & 8 kits and Large Modular Suspensions, it is not possible to offer the new hard-wired Connboxes; instead, we supply suspensions with soft microphone tails with 3-pin Neutrik XLR connectors.
