Audio-Technica U851RbO Omnidirectional Condenser Boundary Microphone

The phantom-powered U851RbO omnidirectional condenser boundary microphone offers outstanding speech intelligibility and transparent sound quality for surface-mount applications such as high-quality sound reinforcement, professional recording, television, conferencing and other demanding sound pickup situations.

The omnidirectional microphone is equipped with a PivotPoint® rotating output connector, UniSteep® filter and UniGuard® RFI-shielding technology. It accepts interchangeable condenser elements, available separately, in cardioid and hypercardioid polar patterns.

With a heavy die-cast case and silicon foam bottom pads to minimize coupling of surface vibration to the microphone, the U851RbO is equipped with self-contained electronics, eliminating the need for an external power module. Threaded inserts on the bottom of the microphone allow it to be mounted with screws for increased security.

Features:

• Omnidirectional condenser boundary microphone
• Designed for surface-mount applications such as high-quality sound reinforcement, professional recording, television, conferencing and other demanding sound pickup situations
• Superior off-axis rejection for maximum gain before feedback
• PivotPoint® rotating output connector allows cable to exit from either the rear or the bottom of the microphone
• Small-diameter UniPoint® element near boundary eliminates phase distortion and delivers clear, high-output performance
• Available interchangeable elements permit angle of acceptance from 100° to 360°
• UniGuard® RFI-shielding technology offers outstanding rejection of radio frequency interference (RFI)
• Self-contained electronics eliminate need for external power module
• Heavy die-cast case and non-slip silicone foam bottom pads minimize coupling of surface vibration to the microphone
• Low-profile design with low-reflectance finish for minimum visibility
• Threaded inserts on bottom of microphone allow it to be mounted with screws for increased security
