RØDE has debuted the ‘NTH-100M,’ a premium headset with a detachable broadcast-grade microphone that is best suited for podcasting, broadcasting, video meetings, or live streaming. Taking inspiration from its predecessor, the ‘NTH-100,’ the ‘NTH-100M’ includes custom-matched dynamic drivers and soft earcups made with Alcantara, memory foam, and CoolTech gel. These materials assist in keeping the wearer's head and ears cool, which lessens wearer fatigue.
The ‘NTH-100's’ drivers generate an open, natural sound appropriate for various applications. The broadcast-grade microphone, placed at the ideal distance for rejecting plosives and maintaining a steady volume, employs a tiny condenser capsule to record all the subtleties of a user's speech.
The ‘NTH-100M’ is now on sale for $189. For $59.99, the 'NTH-Mic' is also offered separately.
