Key Features
- For Modular Miniature Clip Mic System
- Universal Close-Miking Applications
- Cardioid, Electret Condenser Mic
- 12mm Small-Diaphragm Design
- 153 dB Maximum SPL
- Rugged Titanium Housing
- Built-In Shockmount
- Mounts on MCM Gooseneck
The Neumann KK 14 Capsule is part of the modular Miniature Clip Mic (MCM) system designed for universal instrument close-miking applications including solo instrumentalists, big band and brass sections, and amplified orchestras in live applications. Elevating electret technology to Neumann standards, it delivers a staggering 153 dB maximum SPL to capture the details of both loud and very-soft instruments without adding distortion or self-noise. The KK 14 is encapsulated in a lightweight titanium housing to ensure stability and a long service life on the road. Assembled in Germany by hand to align with Neumann's high standards, the capsule delivers first-rate tonal consistency plus that Neumann aesthetics and handling.
KK 14 Capsule with Exceptional SPL Handling & Ultrawide Dynamic Range
The KK 14 features a 12mm diameter (small-diaphragm) electret-condenser element that delivers a truly natural, neutral, and reliable sound—even in challenging technical or acoustic situations. The capsule features a cardioid polar pattern that helps minimize the pickup of bleed from other instruments or stage noise, while allowing greater gain before feedback.
Capable of handling an extremely high 153 dB maximum SPL with an ultrawide 130 dB dynamic range, the KK 14 is deal for close-miking virtually any instrument, from bombastic drums to delicate strings.
Wide Variety of Mounting Options
The miniature capsule easily mounts on the SH 150 MCM gooseneck (available separately) so it can be reliably and accurately positioned over your instrument for optimal sound capture. Nine instrument-specific mounting clips are available for attaching the gooseneck to a wide variety of instruments including guitar, violin, cello, double bass, piano, drums, brass, woodwinds, and more.
Flexible Connectivity for Wired and Wireless Applications
Because it uses electret-condenser technology, the KK 14 can run on either +48V phantom power from a traditional mic preamp or plug-in power from a compatible wireless transmitter.
With its locking 3.5mm termination, the AC 31 cable (available separately) can be used to connect the KK 14 to the MCM 100 output stage module (available separately) for plugging the mic into a mixing board via XLR. The AC 31 cable can also be used to connect the capsule to a wireless transmitter with Sennheiser-compatible mic-input jack.
Neumann offers three more cables to work with other popular wireless transmitters including Lectrosonics, Shure, Zaxcom, Wisycom, and others.
- AC 32 cable with LEMO 3-pin connector
- AC 33 cable with Microdot connector
- AC 34 cable with 4-pin mini-XLR connector

The most engaging interactive toy for my Border Collie
Color: Orange, Color: Orange
My Border Collie is not a big ball player. He prefers tug type games and actually gives me a look like, “Are you stupid? I’m not going to keep bringing that to you if all you’re going to do is throw it away again!” after about the third time I throw a ball for him to fetch. However, I can only play tug so often and I need him to be entertained and engaged as much as possible.
I got him a smaller, non-padded ball like this hoping he would like the interactive aspect of it. He did- he actually loved it! But it was loud, hard on his teeth, would come apart periodically, and he kept hitting the off button when playing with it. It drove me crazy. This one is so much better overall! The soft outer shell is not only easier on his teeth, but it is super resilient to biting and chewing. He actually likes to carry this thing around in his mouth while it’s bouncing and vibrating.
The three modes give great flexibility for different kinds of play. His favorite is the most active mode: the ball reacts to touch and practically bounces itself across the floor when he touches it with his paw or mouth. I will point out that in one of the modes, I thought the battery wasn’t charged or there was a motor issue because it’s very subdued movement; however, it’s just set up as a low-key option. Be sure to check out each mode to see which works best for your dog at different times.
I can’t say enough about this ball- I have been so pleasantly surprised by how much he loves it. The rechargeable feature is super convenient, it’s big enough to not get stuck under the couch, and it automatically shuts off based on whichever mode it’s set on. As the owner of a busy, super-smart dog who needs to be engaged in mental and physical activity, I think this all is worth every penny. In fact, I’m buying one for a friend who has a Border Collie pup with lots of energy to burn! I highly recommend this toy- it’s the most engaging toy I’ve found that Finn will play with on his own.

Not as Smart or Interactive as You Think it Will Be
Color: Blue
This is an honest review from a schnauzer owner who has has wanted this cheerble ball for their dog for more than one year. I finally bougI finally bought this toy and both me and my dog are disappointed. The settings are...i would say dog friendly as I'd assumed a dog ball would be. What I mean by that is, for example: the calm play setting is muuch too calm. Super light puffs of energy, like a battery is dying. And the playful setting is scary, alarmingly so. The intervals in between are too long. The ball does not bounce. So they just have settings all wrong. The size is good for a large dog only. Do not buy if you have a small to medium dog. I even think the material is okay. I've only had it for a few days so I can't even speak to how the material holds up. Really hoping to love this ball for my dog. It was not the distraction I was hoping it would be so I could work from home while my dog had fun. I'm hoping this can help someone else who's been pining over it. Essentially, it's a $35-$50 well made weighted ball that moves occasionally.

Great For Dog Park Fun -- The Ball Goes Flying
Size: 25in, Style: Sport
I love this thing. It's super well made and It enables me to chuck a ball the entire length of the dog park (I'm a 65 yr old woman with a wimpy arm). My dog is thrilled too. At first I thought it might be too heavy, but that's just not an issue, the weight is fine. For non-throwers like me someone at the dog park gave me a tip --- just look at the area you want to throw the ball. Helped my aim immensely.
The 2.5 inch chuck it ball it comes with is my dog's absolute *favorite* . . . it's her security blanket in the kennel while driving, and it's her favorite ball to chase (the only one she'll actually bring back). She loves to chew it and to squish the air out of it, which takes a little effort.
Recommend.

Great tool!
Size: 18in, Style: Sport
Ok - so I do not have a dog!!! I purchased this item for a completely different purpose! I saw someone using this to gather eggs!! I often go to my daughter and son-in-law's homestead to carry out the chores when they need to be out of town! Well, I am a bit on the short side (4'11") and some of the hens KNOW that a short person is going to be gathering eggs!!! I simply could not reach all of the eggs in a couple of the nesting boxes! So, after seeing someone else use this ball launcher as an egg retriever, I bought one! I am now able to reach ALL of the eggs - one at a time with no breakage! It was a game changer for me.
I am sure that it works equally well for dog play!!!
