Product Features
Technical Overview
The Blackwire 3220 incorporates advanced audio technologies to optimize both output and input quality. Its 32 Ohm impedance and 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response provide accurate, detailed sound reproduction across the audible spectrum, supported by a 1.10" (28 mm) driver for consistent audio delivery. SoundGuard Technology and Acoustic Shock Protection safeguard against sudden volume spikes, while Dynamic EQ and Digital Signal Processing (DSP) enhance audio clarity and balance automatically.
The omni-directional, noise-cancelling boom microphone features a rotating, flexible design for precise positioning, coupled with echo and noise reduction to isolate speech. A sound pressure level of 118 dB(A) ensures adequate volume without distortion, and the 5.2 ft (1.58 m) cable offers ample reach for desktop setups. Compatibility spans Windows and macOS platforms, with host interfaces for USB Type C and 3.5mm connections, ensuring broad device support without additional drivers in most cases.
