Common name: Earthworks Audio IM3/IM6/IM10/IM12

Production Status: In production

The Earthworks IM3/IM6/IM10/IM12 Series gooseneck microphones are designed for permanent installation in ceilings and tabletops for conferencing and other speech applications. Optimised for speech, the IM microphones feature a frequency response out to 30 kHz that delivers the highest level of speech intelligibility and articulation. Whether speaking directly on-axis or to the sides of the microphone, the IM microphone always reproduces the speaker’s voice with incredible clarity and intelligibility. This wider coverage also means that fewer microphones are required to properly cover a conference room, cutting down on the number of channels of DSP, cables and other ancillary equipment required for the system. Compatible with all DSP systems that provide 24-48 V phantom power, the IM microphones can easily integrate into existing system designs or new installations. Designed with aesthetics in mind, the IM microphones feature a slim 0.375“ (9.5 mm) gooseneck that allows precise positioning of the microphone for optimal coverage. The microphone flange measures just over 1.4 inches (36.5 mm) wide and 0.125 inches (3.2 mm) tall, mounting flush into the tabletop or ceiling. The IM microphones are available with a 3, 6, 10 or 12 inch flexible gooseneck. Black, white and stainless finishes are available.
