Which Is Right For You?
In general, OTS recommends the HotMic for its sound quality over the SuperMic for almost all applications. With proper care, the HotMic will give years of service, the best sounding communications as well as giving the user the ability to replace it themselves if needed, unlike the SuperMic. On the other hand, if durability and a floodable microphone are two top traits you need in a microphone, the SuperMic would be the choice for you.
The SuperMic is an all depth and floodable microphone, designed for military and other applications where the microphone may need to be flooded or soaked for long periods of time. These hardiness traits trade for sound quality. While SuperMic does offer some noise cancelling properties, it’s not as effective as the HotMic.
Proper Microphone Placement
Proper position of the microphone is at the corner of the diver’s mouth. To ensure the microphone is close enough, a diver should be able to purse their lips and touch the mic. Our dynamic microphones give more energy the louder you speak and less when you speak quieter, so it is recommended that a user speaks loud and clear into the microphone. If a diver were to whisper into the microphone, it will sound as a whisper coming out of the equipment resulting in hard to hear communications.
