Product Description:

®
The Electro-Voice
RE97-2Tx is a low profile,
omni-directional, condenser microphone designed
for demanding applications where a hands-free
microphone is required. The RE97-2Tx is intended
for spoken-word use in theatrical performance,
corporate AV presentations, fixed installations,
houses of worship, or any venue where a full-
range, natural, and well-balanced sound is required
from an inconspicuous, lightweight, head-worn
microphone.
The output of the RE97-2Tx is clean and accurate,
while the omni-directional polar pattern ensures
uniform output regardless of the microphone's
angle relative to the sound source. The RE97-2Tx
head-band is easily adjusted to fit virtually any
head size, is light in weight, and provides a stable
base for the microphone boom.
The microphone boom can be easily adjusted for
optimum placement near the user's mouth by
sliding the boom forward and backward along the
headband. The microphone boom is made of
special, malleable stainless steel that may be
shaped to better match facial contours. The
earloops are designed for full 360° rotation,
allowing for microphone usage on either side of the
head, as well as convenient flat storage when not
in use.
The supplied windscreen can be utilized in windy
environments and to reduce breath noise. The
RE97-2Tx has a shielded 4ft cable terminated in a
®
TA4F connector and is ready
genuine Switchcraft
for use with standard EV and Telex body-pack
transmitters including the EV REV-BP, BPU-
2/CSB-1000 and Telex WT-500/WT-1000.
wire to the body-pack may be conveniently routed
behind the user and attached to a shirt collar with
the included clothing clip.
