Audio Technica AT2020 Cardioid Condenser Microphone

With a wide dynamic range and high SPL handling capability the AT2020 offers unprecedented performance for its price. Developed for project/home studio work it features a specifically developed, custom-designed, low-mass diaphragm which delivers a wide frequency response and exceptional transient response. Superior isolation is achieved through its cardiod polar pattern. This coupled with low self-noise and a rugged, all-metal outer construction makes it the ideal choice for professional quality recording.

The AT2020 comes with a metal pivoting stand mount (with adapter for standard microphone stands) and a protective pouch.
