The Sennheiser MKH800-P48 - Condenser Studio Microphone sets a new standard for studio microphones in the age of high definition digital recording. It is the very fist microphone to fully utilize the wider frequency response and dynamic range of the new 24 bit/96 kHz standard, marking the breakthrough to a yet unknown clarity and precision in audio. A variable pattern condenser microphone, the MKH 800 offers five switchable polar patterns. Ideal for any recording application where exceptional detailed, lively and spatially precise sound is required.
