Perfect for speech, theater, orchestra, and choir sound reinforcement and recording, the U853 condenser hanging microphone is equipped with UniGuard® innovations that offer unsurpassed immunity from radio frequency interference. This phantom-powered microphone accepts interchangeable elements – omnidirectional (360°), cardioid (120°), hypercardioid (100°), and UniLine® (90°) – available separately.
Available configurations:
U853PM: cardioid polar pattern (120° acceptance angle); 25.0' (7.6 m) cable terminated with a TA3F connector for use with the included AT8534 wall/ceiling plate power module (+10 dB gain switch, 80 Hz high-pass UniSteep® filter); black finish.
U853PMU: UniLine polar pattern (90° acceptance angle); 25.0' (7.6 m) cable terminated with a TA3F connector for use with the included AT8534 wall/ceiling plate power module (+10 dB gain switch, 80 Hz high-pass UniSteep® filter); black finish.
U853PMW: cardioid polar pattern (120° acceptance angle); 25.0' (7.6 m) cable terminated with a TA3F connector for use with the included AT8534 wall/ceiling plate power module (+10 dB gain switch, 80 Hz high-pass UniSteep® filter); white finish.
U853PMWU: UniLine polar pattern (90° acceptance angle); 25.0' (7.6 m) cable terminated with a TA3F connector for use with the included AT8534 wall/ceiling plate power module (+10 dB gain switch, 80 Hz high-pass UniSteep® filter); white finish.
