Product Overview

The SM137 is a versatile, flat-response cardioid condenser probe microphone. This professional cardioid instrument condenser microphone offers natural sound reproduction in both acoustic and high volume performance applications. Features include a thin diaphragm, a Class-A preamplifier, pad for performance consistency, and low self-noise. The SM137 has an ultra-thin diaphragm for a frequency response that combines a smooth high-end with a tight, controlled low-end and a 15db pad for natural sound reproduction in both acoustic and high volume performance applications.

Includes

  • SM137 Condenser Microphone
  • Swivel Adapter
  • Zippered Pouch

Features

  • Cardioid polar pattern to reduce the pickup of unwanted sounds
  • Ultra-thin, 2.5 μm 24 karat gold-layered, low mass Mylar® diaphragm for superior transient response
  • Class A, discrete, transformerless preamplifier for transparency, extremely fast transient response, no crossover distortion, and minimal harmonic and intermodulation distortion
  • Premium electronic components, including gold-plated internal and external connectors
  • Two-position switchable pad (0 dB and 15 dB) for handling extremely high sound pressure levels (SPLs)
