sE Electronics X1 A
The sE Electronics X1 A cardioid condenser microphone is based on the X1 version. Improvements include optimized electronics to reduce noise and use a new 2/3” capsule to withstand up to 150 dB SPL. Thanks to its natural frequency response, the X1A is suitable for recording vocals, strings, acoustic guitars and percussion.
Unlike the cheaply constructed bodies of some other "entry-level" microphones, the X1 A's all-metal chassis provides efficient rejection of any electrical interference and noise – and the high-quality finish ensures a great look for years to come. Eliminates the need for an external pop filter, and provides an extra layer of safety and security for the all-important capsule. The X1 A's new condenser capsule design is a work of art, delivering stellar sonic performance on any source with incredible speed, accuracy, and well-balanced frequency response. The electronics have also undergone a complete overhaul, and exhibit better specifications and sound - on and off the test bench - than any other microphone in its class.
