Description

• Features: Designed for critical studio, live sound and broadcast applications. Transformer-coupled output and specially-tuned element provide sonic characteristics reminiscent of early F.E.T. studio microphone designs. Exceptionally low self-noise, wide dynamic range and high SPL capability. Dual-diaphragm capsule design maintains precise polar pattern definition across the full frequency range of the microphone
• Precision-machined, nickel-plated brass, acoustic element baffle provides enhanced element stability and optimal sensitivity. Vintage silver-matte finish on microphone and shock mount. Open acoustical environment of the symmetrical housing assembly minimizes unwanted internal reflections. # State-of-the-art surface-mount electronics ensure compliance with A-T’s stringent consistency and reliability standards. ISwitchable 80 Hz hi-pass filter and 10 dB pad
