Hands-free condenser microphone
The Philips LFH9173/00 is a miniature omni-directional condenser microphone with a tie and collar clip for hands-free recording. It connects through a 3.5 mm plug to compatible pocket memo recorders or other devices with the same input. A small wind screen is included to reduce unwanted surrounding sound. The unit is RoHS compliant and uses lead-free soldering.
Ideal for lectures and interviews
This microphone suits speakers who need a discreet, clip-on solution for lectures, interviews or similar voice capture where the cord can be hidden under clothing. It is not intended for users who require a directional pickup pattern, a different connector type or a stand-mounted form factor.
3.5 mm connector compatibility
The 3.5 mm connector is the single specification that determines whether this microphone will work with a given recorder or input. Verify that the target device provides a matching 3.5 mm microphone socket before purchase.

Questions about this item
What recorder input does the 3.5 mm plug on this LFH9173/00 connect to?
The 3.5 mm connector fits the microphone jack on Philips Pocket Memo recorders and any other recorder with a standard 3.5 mm mic input.
Will the clip hold securely on a thicker collar while I keep using my older pocket recorder?
The tie/collar clip grips fabric firmly and the cord is long enough to reach a belt-worn recorder, so it works with legacy analogue or digital pocket memos.
How can I confirm the microphone is picking up sound correctly after clipping it on?
Make a short test recording; playback should reveal clear speech across the 50 Hz to 20 kHz range with the wind screen reducing breath noise.
