Audix VX5 Cardioid Condenser Vocal Microphone

The VX-5 is a stylish and innovative hand-held vocal condenser microphone designed to handle a wide variety of live, studio and broadcast applications.

With a smooth frequency response of 40 Hz - 16.5 kHz (plus or minus 3 dB), the VX-5 features a 14mm gold vapor diaphragm, a supercardioid polar pattern, a -10 dB pad, a bass roll-off filter, an acoustically ported steel mesh grill screen, and a rugged die cast zinc body.

The VX-5 will handle sound pressure levels in excess of 140 dB (in the pad and roll-off position) without distortion and will additionally provide over 20 dB of ambient noise rejection for feedback control on live stages.

The VX-5 operates on phantom power of 9-52 volts and will achieve optimum results when used with a high quality mic preamp. In addition to vocal applications, the VX-5 is ideally suited to capture acoustic instruments such as guitar, woodwinds, brass, percussion toys, and drum overheads and hi-hat.
