Mojave MA-201fet Condenser Microphone

Ideal for high SPL duties - the MA-201fet is a lush, phantom-powered, solid-state condenser microphone with a fixed cardioid pattern. With its roots in a lineage of microphone designs by David Royer, the MA-201fet gives warm, full-bodied reproductions of vocals and instruments, with none of the shrillness and high frequency distortion artifacts that are often encountered with modern condenser microphones

FEATURES:

• Hand-selected 3-micron 1" capsule
• Jensen audio transformer
• Military-grade FET
• Custom-designed low-noise resistors
• Ultra clean signal path

Utilizing a 3-micron gold-sputtered capsule, high-quality Jensen audio transformer, military-grade FET and custom-designed low-noise resistors, the MA-20fet performs at a level reminiscent of some of the best-loved classic condenser microphones. Each MA-201fet microphone is carefully tested and evaluated, then packaged in its protective case with a professional grade shockmount.
