Sennheiser E908-B - Small-diaphragm Condenser Mic with Gooseneck

The Sennheiser 908B is a miniature condenser instrument microphone, specifically optimized for use with brass and wind instruments in recording or sound reinforcement applications. The cardioid capsule captures audio in vivid detail and clarity while exhibiting excellent rejection of off-axis noise and feedback. The 908B handles high sound pressure levels without peak distortion, enabling close proximity placement without noise.

The miniature capsule remains out of sight during performances and the flexible gooseneck allows for easy positioning. The mounting clamp features dampening materials to eliminate extraneous vibrations, impact and handling noise. The 908B features a locking miniature 1/8" connector for use with EW series belt-pack transmitters, however the MZA 900P cylindrical preamplifier is included and terminates to a standard 3-pin XLR connection, for direct connection to PA systems, consoles, etc.

Wired or Wireless Operation
The E908B features an 1/8" locking mini connection for EW series belt-pack transmitters, the included MZA 900P preamplifier features a 3-pin XLR connector for direct integration with consoles.

MZA 900P Preamplifier
The cylindrical preamplifier also supplies phantom power via an external source. The MZA 900P also features a belt-clip for easy mounting during performances.

Low Frequency Roll Off
Switchable low frequency roll-off filter is available on the MZA 900P. The roll-off eliminates noise and hum below 125Hz.

12dB Pad Switch
The 12dB Pad switch is also located on the MZA 900P. The Pad provides added headroom and minimizes distortion when capturing audio at excessive levels.

Cardioid Polar Pattern
The cardioid polar pattern provides an even frequency response and excellent directivity.

Gooseneck Mount
The capsule rests on a flexible gooseneck for easy microphone positioning.

Clamp Dampening
The sturdy clamp features dampening materials for reducing vibration and handling noise.
