SE Electronics SE7 Small Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser Microphone with Clip

The sE7 is a compact back-electret small-diaphragm cardioid condenser microphone for studio and live applications including acoustic guitar, piano, drums, and other pencil-mic sources. Discrete class-A circuitry and a transformerless output deliver clear, natural sound across the frequency range.

A switchable 20 dB attenuation pad and 80 Hz low-cut filter let you close-mic loud sources or reduce rumble and proximity buildup. The all-metal chassis and gold-plated XLR connector provide roadworthy construction and reliable connectivity.
