Affectionately referred to as “The Lollipop,” the SCX25A is a professional studio condenser microphone with an elegant design and a patented capsule suspension system. Uniquely shock-mounted within an intricate machined brass ring, the capsule is completely isolated from the mic body and electronics. By successfully minimizing acoustic reflections and diffractions, the SCX25A delivers a pure, open air sound with exceptional detail and realism. The SCX25A is consistent when responding to on and off-axis signals.
This mic exhibits outstanding phase coherence and minimal proximity effect. With a wide cardioid polar pattern, the SCX25A enables the sound engineer to blend the sound of the instrument or vocal with the sound of the room. The SCX25A will handle SPLs in excess of 135 dB and provides up to 20 dB of ambient noise rejection. Supplied accessories include heavy duty snap to fit nylon clip and foam lined wood case.
With a smooth uniform frequency response from 20 Hz - 20 kHz, the SCX25A is very consistent when responding to on and off-axis signals, exhibiting excellent phase coherence and minimal proximity effect. The SCX25A has a wide cardioid polar pattern which enables the sound engineer the opportunity to blend the sound of the instrument or vocal with the sound of the room.
Other features include a one-inch (25 mm) gold vapor capsule, miniaturized electronics and an extremely small footprint. The SCX25A will handle SPL in excess of 135 dB and will provide up to 20 dB of ambient noise rejection.
For a lower output option, the SCX25ALO is available with a max SPL limit of 150 dB and a sensitivity of 4.9 mV/Pa. The SCX25A is manufactured with a precision machined brass body, innovative capsule suspension system, steel mesh grill, black multi-layer class ‘A’ liquid finish and gold plated XLR connector.
