MKH 8050

The super-cardioid MKH 8050 will give higher attenuation of off-axis sound from the side than its cardioid sister model. It is a good choice for recording soloists, where the requirements for lateral acoustic separation are higher.

• Super-cardioid pick-up pattern
• Modular design
• Wide frequency response 30 to 50.000 Hz
• Symmetrical transducer with 2 backplates providing extremely low distortion
• Extremely low inherent self-noise
• Accurate directional pattern
• Non reflective Nextel coating
• Provides optimum separation of instruments
