SE Electronics SE2200 Cardioid Condenser Microphone

Get Handcrafted Classic Quality with the SE Electronics SE2200 Cardioid Condenser Microphone with  2 Diaphragms

Although the sE2200 is a cardioid-only microphone, two (instead of one) gold-sputtered diaphragms are used to ensure best possible acoustic performance.

Built like the world’s finest musical instruments, every capsule is hand-crafted and individually tuned in our very own factory in Shanghai - and unlike other microphones with backplate or electret designs, the sE2200 features a true externally polarized condenser capsule, and therefore delivers the best possible performance in every aspect.
