Frequently asked questions
What's the main physical difference between these two?
The GN30 E measures 30 cm in length, while the GN50 E is 50 cm—giving the GN50 E nearly 67% more reach for stage positioning and distant miking applications.
Does the GN50 E have any audio processing the GN30 E lacks?
Yes. The GN50 E includes an integrated 250 Hz bass roll-off filter to reduce proximity effect and stage rumble, while the GN30 E has a flat response across its 20–20,000 Hz bandwidth.
Why does the GN50 E mention an LED ring and the GN30 E doesn't?
The GN50 E includes a detachable XLR phantom power adapter with an LED ring and On/Off jumper for stage visibility and control; the GN30 E is a simpler module without these features.
Are the impedance specs different?
Yes. The GN30 E specifies 6,000 Ohm recommended load impedance, while the GN50 E is rated at 2,000 Ω—making the GN50 E compatible with a broader range of console inputs.
