Philips Introduce LFH9162 In Ear Telephone Pickup Mic


Philips Dictation Australia today announced the launch of a new telephone pickup microphone called the LFH9162. Similar to the Olympus TP-7 this clever mic fits in your ear and is held in place by the telephone you are talking on, recording to your digital voice recorder your phone conversation.

I have long been a fan of this style of telephone recording mic as it can be used with either the office phone or your mobile if you are out of the office.

The LFH9162 simply plugs into the mic socket of any compatible Philips digital voice recorder. Available in Australia any day now the expected price of the LFH9162 will be around $66 incl. GST.

In the box along with your pickup mic you will get a 3.5mm to 2.5mm adapter plug, spare ear cushion and a carrying pouch.

  • Type: Electret condenser microphone
  • Directionality: non-directional
  • Frequency response: 50-20,000 Hz

  • Cord length: 1.0 m
