Product Overview

The Neumann DS 120 (Model: 007343) is a versatile, professional-grade stereo bar and double mount designed for precision microphone placement. Featuring a robust 150 mm support bar and two independent, movable threaded studs, it allows audio engineers to mount two microphones or accessories on a single stand. Whether you are setting up a classic stereo recording or a dual-microphone broadcast rig, the DS 120 provides the stability and flexibility required for critical audio capture.

Product Description

• Precision Stereo Spacing: The DS 120 features a 150 mm long support bar that serves as a rigid foundation for dual-microphone configurations. It is specifically designed to facilitate stereo recording techniques, such as XY or ORTF (depending on the microphone clips used), where precise distance and angling are essential for a phase-coherent soundstage.

• Movable Threaded Studs: The mount is equipped with two movable 1/2" threaded studs. These studs can be slid along the length of the bar and locked into position, giving you total control over the lateral spacing between your microphones. This makes it easy to accommodate different microphone body sizes—from slim small-diaphragm condensers to larger broadcast mics.

• Rock-Solid Stability: Built with Neumann’s legendary attention to mechanical detail, the DS 120 is constructed from high-quality materials with a non-reflective finish. This ensures it remains stable under the weight of professional microphones and stays inconspicuous during filmed performances or televised broadcasts.

• Universal Stand Integration: The base of the DS 120 is designed to mount onto any standard microphone stand. It features a 5/8"-27 female thread and comes included with a threaded adapter for 1/2" and 3/8" stands, ensuring worldwide compatibility with studio and stage hardware.

• Versatile Mounting Options: While optimized for microphones, the 1/2" threaded studs are compatible with a wide range of Neumann accessories, including elastic shock mounts (like the EA 1) or stand mounts (like the SG 21), making it a multipurpose tool for any studio locker.
