Phantom powered circuitry provides high output and impedance matching
High SPL Capabilities
No distortion up to maximum SPL rating
Extremely low residual noise
Ribbon element is not affected by heat or humidity
The R-122 is the world's first active ribbon™ microphone. Designed to work with phantom power, it delivers all of the warm, natural tone of Royer’s R-121, but with +14dB greater output and impedance matching circuitry that makes it compatible with almost any mic preamplifier. Royer’s proprietary offset ribbon transducer (Patent # 6,434,252) is the first of its kind, positioning the ribbon element closer to the front side of the microphone. An integral piece of the magic of all Royer R-series microphones, this arrangement gives the ribbon more room to move within the prime magnetic field while maintaining full frequency response during high SPL recordings.
