Turtle Beach Corporation
’s
HEAR
subsidiary, Neat Microphones, recently announced the commercial availability of its much-awaited Bumblebee II USB Microphone in the United States. The device, which is the successor to the original Bumblebee mic, is considered ideal for gamers, podcasters, content creators and musicians.
The Bumblebee II Professional Cardioid USB Condenser Microphone is part of Turtle Beach’s holiday season product roster. HEAR’s 2021 robust and augmented product portfolio is likely to strengthen its commitment to introducing industry-leading features by consistently leveraging its in-depth expertise to drive innovation in the global market.
Turtle Beach’s line-up of wireless gaming headsets has been highly appreciated by customers, one of them being the Bumblebee II USB Microphone. It is an easy-to-use USB condenser microphone that has been specifically designed to deliver professional-quality 24 bit/96 kHz digital audio output. Its cardioid polar pattern eliminates unwanted external sounds, thereby providing great clarity.
Bumblebee II is compatible with desktops, laptops and any other device with a USB port. It is equipped with a zero-latency headphone monitor backed by mic gain control, volume control and mix control for playback and monitoring sources. Thanks to its shock-mounted, medium-sized 25mm condenser capsule and higher resolution digital circuitry, Bumblebee II offers a flawless vocal presentation.
Further, its sleek and durable yoke-mounted desk stand enables stability on any surface. A USB Type C to USB Type A cable is also included. The Bumblebee II microphone is available at an attractive MSRP of $99.99. It is currently available at participating retailers like American Music Supply, zZounds and Sweetwater, among others.
In early 2021, Turtle Beach acquired Neat Microphones — the maker of high-quality digital USB and analog microphones. Neat has launched more than 60 products since founding Blue Microphones in 1995. The acquisition facilitated HEAR’s entry into the $2.3 billion global microphone market.
It also expanded the audio technology company’s total addressable market for its brands from $5.1 billion to $7.4 billion. HEAR has added almost 40 Neat patents and 70 Neat trademark registrations to its portfolio due to the buyout. In 2021, Neat plans to launch updated versions of some of its popular analog and digital microphones. The company is developing the next-gen products to meet the growing demand for high-quality, affordable microphones.
HEAR currently has a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell). Its shares have declined 11% against the
