S241/U3

Condenser Microphone
1/2”Gold-evaporated Diaphra

Description

S241/U3 is a condenser microphone with 1/2" gold-evaporated diaphragm. Its excellent performance is based on the professional
craftsmanship and top quality standards, including the exchangeable capsule modules and microphone preamplifier. This makes
S241/U3 greatly appreciated and required by leading engineers of studio projects. The slight elevation at high-end of frequency
response makes it an ideal candidate for capturing sounds rich in transients, such as acoustic guitars, snare drums, hi-hats and
overhead drum kits. Its tailored frequency response eliminates the need for heavy EQ on these instruments. All these
characteristics make it a standard configuration for sound companies.

S241/U3 has also benefited from mechanical soldering and surface-affixing techniques, which improve its electro-acoustic
performance reliability.

S241/U3 has a nice and durable gray finish with advanced carving technique.
