The Korena take

Sterling Audio’s P30 is an active, handheld dynamic vocal microphone with a cardioid pattern and DynamicDrive technology. It runs on phantom power and delivers an ultraclean signal level before the mic preamp, helping keep the preamp within its gain sweet spot; the design is especially useful on cable runs over 100 feet. Internal capsule suspension and shockmounting reduce handling, cable, and stage rumble. The elongated die-cast zinc body and reinforced steel mesh grille are built for demanding touring and outdoor environments.
