The white version of U853RU, the U853RWU UniLine condenser hanging microphone features Audio-Technica’s UniLine line-cardioid element and is equipped with UniGuard innovations that offer unsurpassed immunity from radio frequency interference. The phantom-powered microphone accepts interchangeable elements, available in cardioid, hypercardioid, omnidirectional and UniLine line cardioid polar patterns. Its 80 Hz low-cut UniSteep filter reduces pickup of low-frequency ambient noise.
– Designed for suspension over choirs, instrumental groups and theater stages
– UniLine polar pattern provides narrow 90 degrees acceptance angle
– Superior off-axis rejection for maximum gain before feedback
– UniGuard RFI-shielding technology offers outstanding rejection of radio frequency interference (RFI)
– UniSteep filter provides steep low-frequency attenuation to improve sound pickup without affecting voice quality
– Accepts interchangeable elements to permit angle of acceptance from 90 degrees to 360 degrees
– Low-profile design with low-reflectance finish for minimum visibility
– Available in two colors: black (U853RU) and white (U853RWU)
