sE8 Stereo Pair Microphones

The sE8's hand-made capsule features a sophisticated backplate design that delivers a balanced sound ideal for high-hats and drum overheads. It is known for being one of the quietest small-capsule microphones available with high dynamic range and SPL handling. The microphone also includes attenuation pads and low-cut filters for added flexibility in various recording environments.

• Gold-sputtered diaphragms for maximum reliability
• Handcrafted capsules individually tuned in the factory
• Ultra-precision electrode design for natural sonics
• Quietest pencil mic in its class
• Two switchable pads and two low-cut filters for versatility

According to Mix Magazine, these microphones are comparable to much more expensive condensers. The capsule is handcrafted and tuned by skilled technicians, providing a level of quality typically unseen in affordable microphones. The stereo pair configuration ensures identical performance and mic-to-mic consistency for accurate stereo imaging.

Each pair comes with a precision stereo mounting bar, wind screens, mic clips, and a durable metal flight case for protection and convenience.
