Notes: JUDGMENT CALL: same acoustic specs as standard A3 Podium Microphone, differentiated by an integrated LED halo ring (red/green, separately powered) for visual on-air/live indication; kept as its own row since it is a distinct current SKU with its own connector/power requirement, not a color/connector-only variant.
