SKU: STORPHEUS

Product Description

With omni-directional, cardioid and figure-of-eight patterns, as well as a 10dB cut/boost function, Sontronics ORPHEUS is the perfect choice for practically any studio or live application.
 
Its low self-noise and unmistakable presence allow you to record the subtlest of instruments or voices without the need to edit afterwards.
 
The highly sensitive 35mm dual-diaphragm capsule is suspended in its own special mount, almost floating in the large, spherical basket. ORPHEUS's body is cast from zinc alloy, which gives a very low resonance, helping to keep the signal tight and accurate.

Sontronics ORPHEUS is supplied in a luxury, velvet-lined wooden case and really does sound as good as it looks. When used as a room mic or for drum overheads, either on its own or in a pair, ORPHEUS will totally blow your mind!

Mr Shaw Rayment15th Jun 2020

Simply put? A terrific all-rounder LDC. If definitely has the looks but more importantly seems to sound good on almost anything you throw at it You might be a little confused (as was I) with the XLR placement on the back but you very quickly get used to it. Well presented and works like a charm!

Nice full sound. Put it against 4 other mics. Including Neumann 103. Also Austrian audio and Aston spirit. More high end extension and fuller sound than the other 3. Would recommend trying this to anyone. Especially given the price!
