Sennheiser MKH 800 Twin Nx Condenser Microphone
Product no: 9000-0072-7891 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

Designed to support pro-level studio recordings, the Sennheiser MKH 800 Twin features multiple built-in pickup patterns that can be controlled remotely. This universal condenser microphone has been equipped with extremely linear transducers for minimum signal distortion, as well as two symmetric, back-to-back-mounted push-pull capsules that give you the pick of stereo figure-of-8, omnidirectional and a classic cardioid pickup pattern. What's great is that both signals aren't combined which means you actually get to work with two separate channels when you plug in the MKH 800 using the included AC 20 adapter cable.

The Sennheiser MKH 800 Twin: Professionally Versatile

This exquisite condenser microphone is highly sensitive and boasts a maximum frequency response of 50kHz, resulting in extreme acoustic detail and high-resolution audio. As such, the Sennheiser MKH 800 Twin can be used as a main microphone, soloist microphone or as a support microphone, and even comes complete with a shock mount, clip, adapter cable and aluminium case.
