Vintage RARE 1970's Turner 966HVC / 566H Satin Chrome dynamic cardioid microphone w accessories Hi Z 510 410 57D

Hello and welcome to The House of Chrome. You are looking at a very unique, rare and beautiful Turner model 966 model Dynamic cardioid microphone from the 1970's complete with a mic clip, data sheet, new exterior pop filter, cable in which to operate as well as the vintage mic case in which to store the contents. This 566HVC is very seldomly seen and only the 2nd example I have ever come across. This microphone was based on the more common and very popular Shure 585SAV & SV model mic being sold at the time. Just like the Shure 585SAV / SV this Turner 966HVC had a standard ice cream cone design and it came with the practical rotating volume control switch to allow the user to get just the right amount of signal strength. The Turner 966HVC is just slightly shorter than the Shure 585SAV measuring in at 6 inches long X 2 inches wide. A light weight durable, all metal design. The 966HVC is also set at high impedance but it has a very mid range tone. Just a tad bit of bass but not bass heavy. It sounds almost identical to the Shure 585 series mic. This would make a good harp mic or HAM radio mic. You can even broadcast or sing with it if need be. Frequency response is 50 - 15,000 HZ and has a cardioid polar pattern picking up mostly what is right in front of the mic. Pic # 2 shows the very data sheet you'll be receiving and it shows all of it's characteristics which will really come in handy. The 966 series had a much more elegant style then the more aggressive Shure 545 and uses a standard XLR 3 pin XLR type connection. This 566H has been thoroughly cleaned and tested and it's in really nice condition overall. The die cast zinc alloy body comes with the satin chrome finish. The screens are perfect and the inner foam pop filter is still present being in great condition. The handle has virtually no scratches, dents, engravings or corrosion. You'll be very hard pressed to find one as nice as this. The mic can be hand held or placed in the mic clip provided. The volume control knob works perfectly as well. I'd rate the cosmetic condition a true 9 + on a scale of 1 - 10. The mic clip is just as nice as the mic and it will screw onto any desk or floor stand you have. The clip is an all plastic design and it grips the mic firmly once it's inserted. The 566H comes with a long 20 foot cable that's in very nice condition. It has the 3 pin XLR connection for the mic. The cable is soft, pliable and in perfect working order. It has the vintage male Switchcraft male 1/4 inch end connector for use with most audio equipment. The original data sheet shows lite wear but has tons of technical info on the 966HVC. There is a new Auray brand exterior pop filter that fits the mic perfectly and adds an extra layer of protection against unwanted "pops" when speaking to close to the mic. You may not need it but it's there just in case. The vintage black plastic mic case is included and a great place to store all the contents. It's quite large, very lite weight and has two new foam pads inside. The case is in very nice overall physical and operational condition. Locking latch on lid works great too. You'll really appreciate having this to store the mic. MICROPHONE STAND SHOWN IS NOT PART OF THIS SALE AND USED FOR DISPLAY PURPOSES ONLY...
