Description

*Depending on the manufacturer's inventory, it may take around 1 to 2 months for this product to be delivered.

High-resolution unidirectional electret condenser microphones ideal for musical instruments. Serial numbered stereo pair model.

★Captures the original characteristics of each instrument without coloring them. A high-resolution, unidirectional electret condenser microphone ideal for instruments.

■Features● This high-resolution, unidirectional electret condenser microphone features a newly developed wide-bandwidth recording microphone capsule. The newly developed microphone capsule features a thin, lightweight diaphragm and reduced acoustic impedance on the back plate, achieving highly reproducible sound capture up to 50 kHz. Furthermore, high-strength, highly insulating polyetherimide (PEI) is used as the insulating structural material, processed with high-precision resin cutting. The capsule case and back plate are made of brass, processed with high-precision cutting. High-precision assembly ensures high-precision sound capture with minimal distortion. Furthermore, the diaphragm is vapor-deposited with 24-karat gold for exceptionally pure sound quality. The ECM-100U achieves a flat frequency response up to 50 kHz, capturing the unique characteristics of each instrument without coloring it.

The chassis is made of die-cast zinc with a high specific gravity to ensure vibration isolation and damping, and the microphone housing is made of machined brass, combining dissimilar metals to eliminate unwanted resonance and achieve clear sound.

●Made in Japan with a commitment to quality products: Professional audio products, such as the C-38B and C-800G condenser microphones and the MDR-CD900ST monitor headphones, are used in numerous recording studios. These products are manufactured by Sony Taiyo, a Japanese factory that has been producing these products for many years. Each product is carefully assembled by hand by skilled workers under strict quality control standards cultivated through the production of professional products.

Common features of the C-100/ECM-100U/ECM-100N: ・A Sony first to use a thick copper foil board with a copper foil thickness of 70μm. This achieves rich, dense low-midrange and high-resolution high-range sounds. ・Film capacitors are used for all signal lines, achieving clear, transparent sound quality. ・High-precision metal film resistors are used for all signal line resistance, achieving powerful, highly accurate sound quality. ・Compact, high-capacity hybrid aluminum electrolytic capacitors are used for the power supply lines, enhancing power supply smoothness and achieving powerful, accurate sound pickup. ・The output terminals use XLR-3-12C type terminals with gold-plated contacts, ensuring high reliability. ・Low-cut filter included. ・Pad switch function.
