LoFReQ Sub Microphone for Trooper

Here's a radical old technology in microphones, not quite a new one. Using a speaker as a low-frequency capture mic is nothing new. The Beatles used this technique as far back as the recordings of "paperback writer" and "rain," but a commercially available product at this price that employs this technique is something new. Enter the Solomon Mics "Lofreq," built to get all the coveted chest-rumbling, sub-freq goodness, in a smaller package than conventional manufactured sub-mics and half the price as well.

Available in three different finishes - black, white, and white with a black ring - the Solomon Mics "Lofreq" offers limitless placement options and stand choices. Whether dressed in black, all white, or the black and white trooper, your Lofreq will either make an impression or just seamlessly fit whatever aesthetic you choose. Size is everything, and the Solomon LoFReQ is huge in the mix, measuring only 7" compared to a 10" snare.

The Solomon LoFReQ is designed for recording studio and live stage use on kick drum, bass/guitar cabinets. It attaches to a standard microphone stand (5/8" fine thread) and features a Neutrik XLR output jack. This dynamic microphone boasts a 6.5" speaker driver and a bi-directional polar pattern with an impedance of 150 ohms. Additionally, it is equipped with a customized in-line pad for controlled gain, with the gain and impedance designed to match the beta 52.

In summary, the Solomon Mics "Lofreq" is a unique and affordable solution for capturing low-frequency audio, harnessing an old technology in a new and innovative way. Its compact size, versatile mounting options, and customized features make it an appealing choice for both recording studios and live performance stages.
