Listen, Binaural Microphone Pair

Listen binaural microphones are handmade, printed and assembled in Melbourne, Australia by sound artist Todd Anderson-Kunert. Each microphone is modelled off Todd's own ears and are sold in pairs. Each mic / ear requires a AAA battery to run (not included) and ship with a keyhole back so they can be suspended from a screw, hook, pin etc as well as a replacement plain back for use with velcro or magnets.

From Todd:

When installing/changing battery please don't over tighten them, as it is possible to crack the plastic back if you do!

The cases are 3D printed in my studio, and some differences will be present due to the printing process. In order to minimise waste and cost, if a small mark/defect appears in a print but does not affect the audio quality, then they are still used. As such, all microphones have their own unique characteristics 🖤

The mics do have a noise floor that can be audible at high gain / low volume sounds (a few variables here... but acknowledging it exists). They are also quite susceptible to handling noise due to the simplistic nature of their construction.

Each mic is hand stenciled, and may contain traces of paint splats. Equally so each case has been hand sanded with a unique collection of scuff marks. Cover with stickers at your own discretion.

Listen is also available as a stereo contact microphone, monophonic contact microphone in a plastic 3D printed enclosure, triple contact microphone, or as an EMF microphone.
