Yamaha introduces the new RH10MS professional monitor headphones with S-Logic Technology.

S-Logic takes advantage of the natural acoustics of the listener's ear by sending sound around the listener's head and off the surface of the ear canal. This delivers a more spacious sound without relying on tricks like artificial echo or digital processing, ensuring the monitor's accuracy.

Features Include :

- S-logic 3 Dimensional Surround Sound
- Ergonomic design for extended wear
- Accurate reproduction of digital music
- White plating on the outer cuffs is reminiscent of Yamaha's signature white-cone studio monitors
- 1/8" plug with 1/4" adaptor included
- Velour storage pouch included

The RH10MS professional monitor headphones are available at an MSRP of $159.

Neumann will present the TLM 103 D digital microphone at NAB. When used in conjunction with digital workstations, digital Solution-D microphone technology makes life easier for users. The integrated, extremely fast peak limiter guarantees optimal recording levels at all times. Likewise, the Neumann A/D converter built into the microphone eliminates the necessity of tedious experimentation with external converters and preamps.

The TLM 103 D will be available in a choice of satin nickel or matte black finish, with a SG 1 swivel mount. Starter sets are also available, consisting of the microphone, an EA 1 elastic suspension and a connection kit for direct connection to an AES/EBU or S/PDIF input.

The TLM 103 D is expected to be available this spring with price to be announced. For more information follow this link.
