Technically speaking, the U 87 Ai is a timeless design that has remained unchanged for decades. It employs the same dual-diaphragm capacitor capsule design as its predecessor, the legendary U 67 from the early 1960s. While the head amplifier is also based on the same design principles as its tube-driven predecessors, the U 87 Ai achieves maximum signal integrity and high common-mode rejection through a unique FET circuit and transformer-balanced output that minimizes the signal path.

The result is a studio microphone with unparalleled clarity. Its natural sound and distinctive midrange presence make the U 87 Ai the ultimate vocal microphone, acclaimed by singers and engineers alike, and an ideal choice for speech applications such as voiceovers, overdubs, and audiobooks. With a balanced response across its three polar patterns, the U 87 Ai is also a highly versatile microphone suitable for a wide range of applications, from acoustic guitars to drum overheads. Its solid bass response and excellent midrange detail make it a popular choice in front of bass and guitar cabinets. In classical music recordings, it is often used as a spot microphone for soloists such as cellists. The U 87 Ai stereo pair is the choice of many engineers for piano recordings across almost every genre, from pop and jazz to classical.
