Description

sE Electronics X1S Large diaphragm Condenser Microphone

The new gold standard in affordable condensers

When sE introduced the X1 in 2010, it redefined the potential of an affordable hand-crafted condenser microphone. Featuring the highest dynamic range and SPL handling capabilities in its class, along with dramatically increased flexibility, the X1 S has been improved in every way - yet is even more affordable than the original.

Highlights

Custom-designed hand-crafted true condenser capsule individually tuned in our own factory

A refined version of sE's best-selling X1

Improved sensitivity, dramatically increased SPL handling (up to 160dB!), and a huge reduction in self-noise.

Hand-made metal housing and gold-sputtered diaphragms

80 /160 Hz bass-cut filters and -10 / -20 dB pads
