Description
Most pop filters trade one problem for another: they tame plosives but leave a subtle audible fingerprint on your source. The HAKAN P110 Pop Killer, developed by microphone specialist mikrofonen.se in Sweden, is engineered to break that trade-off. It blocks pops effectively while leaving the frequency response and character of your microphone essentially untouched.
The secret is in the foam. mikrofonen.se researched and selected a hydrophobic foam disk that resists absorbing moisture from breath. Since water isn’t retained in the material, it can’t linger and gradually color the sound the way traditional foam or fabric filters can over a session. That same hydrophobic quality means the disk is easy to clean with ordinary detergent and dries quickly afterward, making it simple to keep hygienic between sessions or performers.
Mounting matters too. The wire holder supporting the foam is designed to be acoustically invisible, avoiding the diffraction artifacts that can come from bulkier support frames used on other pop filters.
This isn’t just a claim – mikrofonen.se backed it with measurements. Their tests show a clear coloration curve on typical pop filters, while the P110 measures flat and uncolored by comparison.
- Gooseneck design for flexible, precise positioning
- Hydrophobic foam resists moisture absorption
- Washable and quick-drying for easy hygiene
- Low-diffraction wire support minimizes acoustic interference
- Engineered to prevent pops without altering mic tonality
A smart, low-profile accessory for anyone who wants clean vocal takes without second-guessing what the filter itself is doing to the sound.
