What is the difference between the KMS 104 and the KMS 104 Plus?
While both are cardioid condenser vocal microphones the plus adds more weight to the lower register - this results in slightly more warmth to treble-heavy audio pickup. If you are a female singer or higher register vocalist then this would be a great solution for you.

With it's condenser capsule that is precision manufactured for that renowned Neumann sound this is a great solution for live performance but also for studio recording. The KMS 104 Plus is also built to last with its rugged design - this cardioid vocal microphone can certainly stand the rigours of life on the road. The internals also reiniforce the quality of the microphone with excellent pop protections which reduces plosive sounds and the low handling noise means you can carry the microphone around the stage with minimal noise. Together with the High SPL Capability and the high feedback resistance you surely will be step above other vocalists when it comes to live performance.
