Earthworks M23 Omni Measurement Microphone
In any situation where precision matters the M23 is a top choice, whether that's in live sound setup, speaker calibrations or anywhere accurate audio measurement is required.
The M23 is rugged too, rated at 140dB SPL without distortion, low handling noise and able to handle nearly any environmental conditions.
Extremely fast impulse response and linear phase response make the M23 ideal for use with high-quality FFT-based real-time audio system measurement software like SMAART™, SIM™, REW™, Electroacoustics Toolbox™, FuzzMeasure™ and others, as well as for use in PA system alignment and loudspeaker design.
Every M23 is individually hand-tuned and tested and is delivered with its own printed frequency response chart. An Electronic Calibration File (ECF) is generated for each microphone during final testing, and can be downloaded free of charge after product registration.
