The PolarChoice Satellite is a free-standing gooseneck style 

microphone, firmly anchored in place by its elegantly designed 

base, and is highly-shielded from RFI/GSM thanks to EV’s 

exclusive RF Shield technology. This low-profile foundation 

hides PolarChoice Satellite’s most powerful feature - space 

for a wireless transmitter. Turn the base over to reveal the 

specially designed compartment for housing a Telex or 

Electro-Voice bodypack transmitter. Connect the microphone 

to the bodypack, set-up the wireless channel, and place PC 

Satellite anywhere an easy-to-use microphone is required. No 

longer do you have to cut holes in tables, run long cables, or 

compromise the architectural integrity of an installation. With 

the Polar Choice Satellite, anything is possible.
The PC-Satellite features an EV PolarChoice multi-pattern 

microphone. The multi-pattern versatility of the PolarChoice 

microphone makes it a true “problem solver”. With one (1) 

non-directional and three (3) directional polar patterns 

available, the PolarChoice microphone is ideal for virtually any 

installation. The PC-Satellite also includes a switchable high 

pass filter that greatly reduces any vibration induced noise 

pick-up.
