CAD Professional Mics M177

Resulting from over a decade of active development, the M177 is one of the first in a new generation of CAD condenser microphones. Using the latest computer modeling tools has resulted in a microphone that features the best of old world and new world technology at an astonishingly affordable cost. The M177 features a single pattern version of the original Equitek E-300 capsule. Is an externally biased capsule with a gold sputtered 1.1" diaphragm. The M177 has a high speed, low noise operational amplifier head amp, coupled with a new discrete high efficiency power supply circuit. This results in incredibly low noise, low distortion and fast transient response. The M177 will even work with 24-volt phantom supplies! The M177 also features a non-capacitive 20 dB pad switch and an 80 Hz high-pass filter.
