sE Electronics sE8 Matched Pair Condenser Microphones
The sE Electronics sE8 matched pair offers one of the quietest small-capsule mics anywhere, with the highest dynamic range and SPL handling in its class, along with attenuation pads and low-cut filters for superb flexibility.
As with all of our factory-matched pairs, every mic ending up in a sE8 stereo pair configuration is hand-selected from hundreds of individual microphones. This ensures identical performance and the highest possible mic-to-mic consistency.
