Reviews and Testimonials

"As a result of this successful setup, we will continue to use the KLOVER MiK Parabolic microphone kits in remote classroom systems and future interactive cinema deployments for years to come."

"They (the KLOVER MiK 16) simply did what other mics couldn't do. We pick up sounds and hear conversations happening at a whisper level at a great distance. This is something that other microphones and other technologies simply couldn't do based on the distance of these boats to the camera."

"Are you trying to bankrupt me? I'm just a poor Canadian A1. I pulled the parabolic out of the box yesterday and instantly had a ton of interest from some of the crew. My tech manager loved it. He wants one for his DSLR. He came in during the game and listened in real-time. I'm sure he'll be ordering one soon. I've attached some of the pics where I mounted it. Thought it was pretty ingenious. You may notice in some of the pictures a shotgun on top of the lens. Had to do the AB comparison. Well, no comparison at all. I'll take it."

"I've had a setup I've used for baseball for several years, but at the Little League World Series, we had to set up the shotgun mics back in a hallway that had the scorekeepers and other people walking around. I always ended up capturing "extra voices." When I switched to Klover (KLOVER MiK 16), all that went away."

"The parabs (KLOVER MiK 16s) are great. We have only gotten to use them with volleyball and soccer broadcasts, but they have really added a great sound to the show!"

"We just finished our first home stand and we loved the (KLOVER MiK-16) parabs. They sound so great! You can hear the pop of a mitt and the crack of a bat so crisply. They look sharp on television as well."

"My team recently purchased a KLOVER MiK 16 Sound Shield and are thrilled with the performance. We are looking to buy a couple more full KLOVER MiK 16 SS kits as a result."

"We hear things that were all but impossible to get before. KLOVER MiK has become the industry standard."

"In my opinion, there is really no comparison between the Big Ears Parabolic Microphone and the KLOVER MiK. The Klover microphone has a much tighter pickup pattern. The Klover microphone has a completely different focus method and sounds much more like a condenser shotgun microphone."

"The small size of a parab was intriguing, but I wanted to hear it. I have used the parab on Wrestling and on Judo. Due to the small size of the dish, it didn't stand out in the shot. I heard this "tearing" noice and couldn't figure out what it was. Finally, I saw a person pulling masking tape off of a roll 30 feet away from the parab! It doesn't have a tin can sound, nor does it have a resonant hum. Overall you could say I was pleased with my purchase, but maybe a better term would be ecstatic."

"The mic (KLOVER MiK 16) is awesome. I just used it this last weekend. It has always captured awesome audio and its easy to store and put together."

"I can say it (KLOVER MiK 16) localizes and amplifies/concentrates the animal vocalizations better than any other technology I have used."

"I used them (KLOVER MiK 16s) for the 2013 ALCS and World Series, and they worked great. I also used them for the MLB World Series in Sydney, Australia, where I was forced to be much further from the action than normal, and they performed really well. I will definitely use them again."

"I was impressed with not only the quality of the materials used to build the Klover parabolic microphones, but also the clarity and presence of audio."

"The amazing beauty of your product (KLOVER MiK-09) is that in about a minute one can use whatever lav they have as one of the world's farthest-reaching mics simply by inserting it into the parabolic dome! One can use their lav in a sit down interview one minutes and a couple of minutes later as a fantastic shotgun. And we can easily afford to use two mics at once, one for the person talking on the left and the other for the person talking on the right."

"Ever since I built those boxes around the 9-inch KLOVER MiK and put it on the backstop at baseball and softball, all of the SEC teams that have come to town ask what we are doing for on-field audio. I showed them pics of the boxes with parabs and I've sent them all your way! The other schools that have come to town say the audio we are getting from those parabs are as good or better than the SEC tournament in Hoover. Needless to say they are working out amazing for us." (We provided the custom-cut foam used in our flight case and Chase built a box around the foam.)

"We are very happy with the 26-inch parabolic microphone kits we got from you. Thank you for getting them to us so quickly."

"The Klover system worked great! Too good for one of the College’s with which we have a season contract. After I got things settled, we had a great broadcast and the Klover was very instrumental. So good that we received emails and text messages from viewers about the value the sideline sounds made to the broadcast. The Monday following the game, I get a call from the College’s athletic director asking for a meeting ASAP. When the coaches reviewed the broadcast, they got upset that you could hear their audibles and felt that their next opponent would have an advantage. So much so they demanded that we take broadcast down from our website and prohibited us from using the dish in their last two games."
