Audix SCX25AMP
Best matched pair for professional studio piano recording.
These microphones are built for engineers who prioritize a pure, open-air sound over artificial coloration. By isolating the capsule within a unique brass ring, they eliminate reflections that muddy a recording. You sacrifice the ability to easily hide a source's flaws, but you gain an incredibly realistic, high-fidelity stereo image.
