Transformerless cardioid condenser studio microphone that is designed for use in the most demanding applications. It utilizes a gold-plated, “aged-diaphragm” capacitor element with an internal baffle plate to increase the signal-to-noise ratio of the microphone system. This, coupled with low-noise transformerless electronics results in exceptional transient response and clean output signals, even under high-output conditions, which makes this microphone ideal for the most critical digital recordings. The dynamic range of the microphone is 128 dB without the built-in attenuator, and it accepts up to 145 dB SPL without capsule or electronic-system distortion above 1% T.H.D. To ensure optimum performance, a floating-construction element provides isolation from noise and vibration. A switchable 10 dB (nominal) pad is built-in, increasing the SPL capabilities to 155 dB SPL. An integral 80 Hz hi-pass filter provides easy switching from a flat frequency response to a low-end roll-off. An internal open-cell foam windscreen is permanently installed inside the case assembly between the grille and element for “pop” protection. The microphone also comes supplied with the AT8441 shock mount for 15.9mm-27 threaded stands and a protective carrying case. Frequency response: 30 Hz-20 kHz. Open circuit sensitivity: -32 dB (25.1 mV). Impedance: 100 ohms. Maximum input sound level: 145 dB SPL. Dynamic range: 128 dB. Signal-to-noise ratio: 77 dB. Phantom power requirements: 48 V DC. Dimensions: 170 x 53.4 mm. Weight: 380 g.
