Studio Large-Diaphragm Tube Condenser Microphone

The Z5600A-II Studio Large-Diaphragm Tube Condenser Microphone from sE Electronics is a versatile vacuum-tube condenser microphone that can be used for a wide variety of applications.

The microphone features omnidirectional, cardioid, and figure-8 polar patterns with six intermediate stages between each, a -10 dB pad for minimizing distortion, and a low-frequency roll-off for eliminating hum and noise.
