A Speech Microphone Designed for "Conference" Uses and Installations
The Apex Electronics 141 belongs to the family of condenser "gooseneck" microphones, highly valued whenever stable, intelligible, and repeatable voice capture is needed. This type of microphone is a standard on podiums, stages, meeting rooms, places of worship, amphitheaters, community centers, and performance spaces where speech must remain clear without the need to hold a handheld microphone.
With its length of 330 mm, it offers a comfortable working distance to adapt to various podium heights and different speaker physiques. Its slim format facilitates visual integration into institutional, event, or stage environments while maintaining precise capsule orientation.
Who Is This Gooseneck Microphone For?
This model is particularly suited for speakers, hosts, lecturers, teachers, and presenters seeking clean speech capture without handling a handheld microphone. It is also suitable for sound engineers and installers looking for a simple solution to deploy on a table, podium, or announcement booth, with a standard XLR connection.
The hyper-cardioid directivity favors the voice positioned in front of the microphone and helps reduce side sounds. This is an advantage in reverberant rooms, where multiple sound sources coexist (audience, monitors, ventilation, room noise), or when aiming to improve intelligibility without excessively raising the level.

Questions frequently asked
Does the Apex Electronics 141 require phantom power?
Phantom power from 9 to 48 V is required to operate its condenser capsule. It can be supplied by a mixer, an audio interface, or a compatible preamp.
What type of connection should be used with this gooseneck microphone?
The connection is made via XLR, a common format in sound reinforcement systems and announcement booths.
Is the hypercardioid polar pattern suitable for a reverberant room?
The hypercardioid capsule favors the voice positioned in front of the microphone and reduces pickup of side sounds. This polar pattern helps maintain intelligibility in reverberant spaces or rooms with background noise. Proper orientation towards the mouth and a consistent distance remain necessary.
What is the length of the Apex 141 gooseneck?
The gooseneck measures 330 mm, with an overall size of 330 x 30 mm. This format allows precise aiming of the capsule on a lectern or table.
