Marketing Information |
Ideal for conference centers, boardrooms,
courtrooms, houses of worship, and other installed applications, the
U857Q is designed to plug directly into a panel- or desk-mounted
XLRF-type connector. This cardioid condenser quick-mount gooseneck
microphone offers unsurpassed immunity from radio frequency interference
thanks to Audio-Technica’s UniGuard® innovations. The 14.47” long
microphone features an ultra-flexible small-diameter gooseneck and
accepts interchangeable elements, available in cardioid, hypercardioid,
omnidirectional and UniLine™ line cardioid polar patterns. Equipped with
self-contained electronics, the phantom-powered microphone also offers
an 80 Hz low-cut UniSteep® filter that reduces pickup of low-frequency
ambient noise. |
