The Audix VX5 Vocal Condenser Microphone is a multi-purpose, professional vocal condenser microphone designed for live, studio and broadcast applications. With an ability to duplicate studio quality sound on stage, the VX5 has a smooth and accurate frequency response, resistance to feedback and handles very high SPLs without distortion. With a wide frequency range of 40 Hz - 16.5 kHz, the VX5 has a very clean and natural sound with exceptional transient response. Designed with a tight and uniformly controlled supercardioid polar pattern, the VX5 condenser vocal microphone helps isolate vocals from the rest of the stage. It's also a versatile mic for home studio recording.
Other features are a 14 mm gold vapor diaphragm, an acoustically ported steel mesh grill with a multi-stage pop filter, and a -10 dB pad and bass roll-off filter. The VX5 will handle SPLs in excess of 140 dB (with pad and roll-off engaged) and will provide over 20 dB of ambient noise rejection on live stages.
The VX5 is well balanced, comfortable to hold, durable, and designed with very high standards and tight tolerances.The VX5 is manufactured with a precision die cast zinc alloy body, durable blackE-coat finish and gold plated XLR connector. The VX5 requires 18 - 52 V phantom power.
