Royer SF-2 MP - Matched Pair of SF-2 Ultra-Compact Active Ribbon Microphones

Royer SF-2 MP - Matched Pair 

The Royer SF-2MP is a matched pair of compact, mono, phantom powered ribbon microphones designed primarily for classical applications and acoustic instruments. The SF-2 features active electronics that make it as sensitive as standard condenser microphones which allowing it to be used effectively with a variety of mic preamps.

The SF-2 has a flat, uniform frequency response with a figure-of-eight polar response, transient response is superb thanks to the 1.8 micron ribbon element. Off-axis coloration is negligible.

Royer SF-2 Features

• Phantom powered circuitry provides high output and impedance matching
• High SPL capabilities (130 dB @ 70 Hz)
