Description

Introducing the Sennheiser MKH 50

The Sennheiser MKH 50 offers greater attenuation of off-axis and diffuse sound than a cardioid microphone. It is best used as a solo or fill microphone when effective side suppression and good resistance to acoustic feedback are required. Its frequency-independent directivity allows for fill miking without altering the tonal balance.

Key features of the Sennheiser MKH 50

High reliability against feedback (Larsen)
Extremely low self-noise
Symmetrical output isolated from ground, without converter
Extremely low harmonic distortion thanks to the symmetrical transducer technique
Switchable pre-attenuation and proximity effect compensation
Lightweight black anodized metal housing
