SE Electronics sE2200, Large Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser Mic

SE Electronics SE2200 Large Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser Mic with Shockmount & Filter

The sE2200: Classic sound by any standards. The sE2200 is the latest version of the award-winning cardioid condenser microphone that put sE Electronics on the map many years ago with its smooth polished sound for vocals voiceovers and numerous instrumental applications. Made famous through use with world-class vocal artists like Amy Winehouse it revives the spirit of classic studio microphones and still remains a standard in mic lockers around the world.

Given the revered status of its predecessors sE has remained true to the original capsule design custom-built transformer and class-A circuit topologies so it’s still the same condenser microphone loved by a whole generation of engineers.

State-of-the-art components and a shorter optimized signal path provide even better noise performance & clarity new pad & filter options increase its versatility and the fit & finish has been updated with sE’s latest manufacturing techniques - but the sE2200 retains all the classic sound of the original.

HANDCRAFTED 1" TRUE CONDENSER CAPSULE

Although the sE2200 is a cardioid-only microphone two (instead of one) gold-sputtered diaphragms are used to ensure best possible acoustic performance. Built like the world’s finest musical instruments every capsule is hand-crafted and individually tuned in our very own factory in Shanghai - and unlike other microphones with backplate or electret designs the sE2200 features a true externally polarized condenser capsule and therefore delivers the best possible performance in every aspect.

TRADITIONAL CLASS-A ELECTRONIC DESIGN

Its carefully selected discrete components ensure brilliant sound quality on any source. The sE2200’s design still avoids using any ICs (integrated circuits) and is built to excel – not to a standard. Low noise consistent performance and high sensitivity is provided by state-of-the-art surface-mounted electronic components with extremely tight tolerances.

TWO SWITCHABLE ATTENUATION LEVELS & LOW-CUT FILTERS

The -10 dB and -20 dB pad switches provide extended dynamic range enabling a wide variety of applications and close-mic techniques for even the loudest instruments...think super-heavy electric guitars fortissimo brass instruments and heavy-footed kick drums. Selectable at either 80Hz or 160Hz the two low-cut filters help eliminate low-frequency rumble or footfall noise as well as help compensate for excessive bass (proximity effect) with close-mic techniques.

CUSTOM-BUILT OUTPUT TRANSFORMER

Reviving the spirit of classic studio microphones the sE2200’s custom transformer provides superb depth & weight to the overall sonic image and the massively shielded metal housing ensures noise-free operation.

ALL-METAL HOUSING & PREMIUM FINISH

Unlike the cheaply constructed bodies of some other affordable microphones the sE2200'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.

GOLD-PLATED XLR CONNECTOR

Ensures loss-free reliable signal connection for years and years and years.
