The Model 708A “Stratoliner” is a pressure-actuated diaphragm-type semi-directional crystal microphone with wide range response for high quality reproduction of sound. The crystal used is a grafoil (high capacity) bimorph unit, moisture-sealed to withstand adverse climatic conditions. The case is attractively streamlined for improved acoustical performance and modern appearance. The microphone is provided with built-in receptacle and 7-foot shielded rubber- jacketed cable with microphone plug attached. Its wide response is ideal for excellent reproduction of voice or music. The 708A is semi-directional when placed horizontally while it becomes non-directional when used vertically. The swivel allows tilting the microphone up to 90º.
