Ive watched all of the vids I can find on Bob Heil. Most of them multiple times. One can either choose to learn from individuals like him, or one can lose out on a wealth of knowledge that teaches us something we may not have known.
We'v used Bob Heil's mics in the Ham (Amateur) radio world for decades... I bought the model PR 781 for my Kenwood TS-850S and it sounds amazing on the air... 73's DE KK4MMM..
Im new to HAM....got my callsign first week of June 2020....general in July....Extra in August. After getting my first HF rig, FT-991, and then got a Heil PRAS. Oh man....amazing. My wife is not easily impressed, and she was amazed. Hooked it up to a powered JBL speaker designed by Heil. Now have a PR-40 on order. Have spent most of my time, effort, and cost in my shack in Antenna, Grounding, RFI reduction, and Sound.
Great show! Bob's a riot! Serious food for thought.
What do you expect from a couple of old pirates from the late sixties early 70's. Over in England. He forgot George Thomas he is another Partner of Kirk's. I never get tired listing to their stories including Ted Randell's over at their shortwave station above the Grand Ole' Opere Hotel in Nashville. WTWW
35:00 as an argument for having boring sounding mics.
Yes, the HEILs are great on stage. Absolutely. They ARE the best. Handsdown.
But they sound harsh when not listening in a live environment.
Since many shows gets broadcasted and since people expect studio sound from broadcasted liveshows these days. I have no choice to go with the Shures, Sennheiser and Neumanns.
Especially the Neumann condensor handmics. It's almost as if you are in a studio when the end mixing is done.
Outside that, LOVE HEIL mics for HAM, broadcasting and instruments.
Love all Six of my HEIL microphones.(2)PR20,(1) FIN,(1)Goldline Pro,(1) Gold Elite,& (1)iCM.I also have (2)SM-1 shock mounts,(1) PL2 Overhead boom,(1)FS-2 foot switch, & (1)HS-2 Thumb switch.All of the items serve me well and I look forward to having more soon.
EPISODE 335 IS WOW . LEARNT A LOT FROM MR BOB HEIL. amazing opened the mind on microphone what he is talking about. great episode . I will know purchase pr 40 and try it out my self.
Turbo!!! The best Engineer I know!
I use an old dynamic GE mobile mic from the '60's or '70's on my mobile radio because I can be driving down the road at 70 mph with my window down and can barely hear my radio, but people tell me I sound like I'm sitting in my shack. Whatever magic GE did with the acoustics of that plastic mic and the mic element really works. Chinese junk it ain't.
Hi Bob can you dismantle the CB1 Mic base stand and gain access to the switch..if so how, from Fred in UK g4vvq. thank you
For Ham radio, I prefer a mic with a sharper, harsher tone. Studio sound is ok for podcasters, but to talk to England from the USA on 75 watts and get through clearly, with great audio reports, I'll take a sharper toned mic! BTW I use a $15 Pyle PDMIC78 for my European DX.
If you're looking for info about headsets: 55:25
Seems like a very interesting individual to shoot the shit with. Considering the PR77 for upcoming project. Would be my 1st Purchase from Heil.
so what model is the gold mic?
yes but which models consist of the goldline? i am not finding them listed
The 781 can be bought with the gold screen. The Heil site has pictures for easy "which has the gold screen" identification.
shark air lots of the models have the Gold screen.I have the PR-20, Gold Elite,& Gold Line Pro and all have Gold screens.
I have a PR20. Sounds okay but thank GAWD it is on a stand with the handling noise hell. Quality control kicked in after it was on the market. I like my SE V7 better for sound.
Bob's magic wands of sound
31:00 Hahaha 😂 I agree on the 58!
i have one bobs mic,s the heil hm12 and i have it on the pro3 and all i get is comolements on my audio but i think its more to do with my radio and its set up anyway back to the subject yes i think there to exspensive because were all not well off like some ppl i could mention mainly because of his prices i surpose lol 73 from slelmersdale england thats by liverpool
The Rockin rollers new
Anyone can buy a radio but you can build your own antenna think about it
Yeah voice inflection that's it
It's NOT Bias....it's Experience.
I have Heil headphones with boom mic.....suks...you have to turn the mic gain up 3/4s to get it to talk.
They maybe the best out there but I would say most of us can’t afford them and have to go with what we can afford
Simon Kirby the PR-20 can be purchased New for about $100 and it is an Awesome microphone.
use a noise gate.

20 minutes of clipping and distortion. I must be missing something...?
Audio is important. lol
You sound like a phone call from 1972 for sure
Audio is important. lol
@@larryhinze8658 audio is everything to me.
I just thought with the cut outs, pops and crappy audio it would have been more serious for them.
Bob was in a quandry. Use that tinny fucking microphone, or move up the ladder to a waxed kite string and two soup cans.
stop show boating.
Wanted to learn more about Microphones, as the title indicates. After 6 min.plus of self adulation and supposed non-biased product opnions, I've had enough. My takeaway, these people have come together with their personal friend Bob Hiel to help hawk his products.
Nice try...
Your loss because his microphones are AWESOME! I currently own (6) of them & more in the future.
Not knocking Heil, have heard a few on the air,but my Shure beta57 gets all the attention.
Part two they pulled down their pants and measured their wankers for comparison with a micrometer.
@@1OFGODSOWN I would buy six of his microphones...just for a boat anchor as I chose three other brands I prefer. He mentioned he is not a broadcaster, sounds like it audio wise.
7 minutes into the video and still no talk about dynamic mics. The expectations of someone coming across this interesting title are apparently not the same as the people making it.
Who cares about your personal broadcast BS? NOT ME! I was hoping to hear something intelligent about dynamic microphones, not Hammond organs!
Heil microphones are over rated. No one in the broadcast business will ever take Bob's microphones seriously because he's a little indentured. But they are OK for CB ham radio.
Danish Native Really? Every iHeart Radio Station has the HEIL PR-40 in them.It appears you don’t know what your big mouth spews out there sport. Maybe you should get your lies straight before looking like the fool that you are.LOL iHeart must take them serious because they removed those overpriced and overrated Shure microphones for the HEIL PR-40. Shame none take them seriously.
Indentured? How?
