Product Overview

Experience a great fit for any number of installed mic applications.

Designed to plug directly into a panel- or desk-mounted XLRF-type connector, the U857Q is ideal for numerous installed applications. Thanks to Audio-Technica’s UniGuard® innovations, this quick-mount gooseneck condenser microphone offers unrivaled immunity from radio frequency interference (RFI). The 14.47" long mic features an ultra-flexible small-diameter gooseneck, plus for further versatility, it accepts interchangeable mic elements available in cardioid (included), hypercardioid, omnidirectional and UniLine® line-cardioid polar patterns. Equipped with self-contained electronics, the phantom-powered microphone also provides an 80Hz low-cut UniSteep® filter that offers reduced pickup of low-frequency ambient noise.

A longer (18.94") version is also available: U857QL (sold separately).
