Affectionately known as a “gem”, the M 160 has enriched hit after hit with a sound character that has very little tonal colouring. A precise bass response, warm mids and silkily elegant trebles merge together to form a very unique sound. Those who are familiar with this microphone will know: there is no alternative to the M 160.SOFTENS HARSH SOUNDSThe M 160 is ideal for miking electric guitar amps. This is due not only to its hypercardioid polar pattern, which is unique among ribbon microphones, but also to its special sound character. The M 160 delivers a warm but nevertheless natural sound. In addition, the M 160 easily masters the high sound pressures of a guitar amp and provides a signal that is perfect for processing.IDEAL FOR DRUMSWhether as overhead, for the hi-hat or as a room microphone, the M 160 is an excellent choice for miking a drumkit. In particular, sharp sounds such as cymbals are reproduced in a well-balanced way. In addition, the low mass of the two wafer-thin double-ribbons ensures high impulse fidelity. Sounds with a strong attack are precisely reproduced thanks to the microphone’s quick transient response.A DOUBLE-RIBBON MICROPHONE FOR EVERY APPLICATIONThe M 160 is an exceptionally versatile member of the ribbon microphone family. Its high-definition sound and wide frequency response of 40–18,000 Hz take effect when miking not only drums and amps, but also acoustic guitars, brass instruments and strings. In combination with a wind shield, the M 160 is a great choice for those who wish to give their voice a warm, vintage sound. Together with the dynamic double-ribbon M 130, which has a figure-eight polar pattern, the M 160 can also be used for M/S recording.A VERY SPECIAL PATTERNThe M 201 features a hypercardioid polar pattern. This has a number of advantages. Priority is given to sound coming from the front, while most signals from the sides and some from the back are reduced. This ensures excellent channel separation. In addition, the M 201 is less prone to feedback, making it suitable for use in noisy surroundings.QUALITY - MADE IN GERMANYThe M 160 is the embodiment of top-quality craftsmanship. From the exact width of two hand-stamped pure aluminium ribbons, to placing them in the magnet gap with millimetre precision, through to testing the vibration behaviour. Manufacturing various components in-house, such as the microphone grille or the transformer, gives us permanent control over compliance with our high quality standards.This is reflected in our choice of specialists. The production of an M 160 requires particular dexterity. In the end, all of this hard work becomes apparent in the microphone’s outstanding sound quality. Every microphone is a masterpiece thanks to exacting precision “Made in Germany”.USE-OPTIMISED RIBBONThanks to its compact dimensions and low weight, the M 160 is impressively easy to position in any situation. It is also uniquely robust for a ribbon microphone. It is thus one of the few of its kind used on loud live stages, even though it has been established as a studio standard. This classic microphone now comes safely stored in a sturdy hard case.INDIVIDUAL MEASUREMENT CURVEBecause each one is intricately handmade, each M 160 is unique. We even go one step further and individually measure each and every microphone. A print-out of the measurement curve is included with your purchased M 160.DURABLE MATERIALSOur microphones are designed for daily use in professional conditions, which is why only durable materials are used in their construction. If the microphone nevertheless gets damaged, our service policy means that we can replace almost every part.NAMM TEC AWARDSTECHNOLOGY HALL OF FAMEThis dynamic double-ribbon microphone has received an honour reserved for very few audio products. Thanks to its advancement of audio technology, the M 160 was inducted into the elite circle of the "NAMM TEC Awards Technology Hall of Fame" in 2019.

The sE2300 is the latest version of the popular studio microphone that has quickly earned sE Electronics a high reputation thanks to its outstanding sound characteristics. Its smooth yet present sound is ideal for vocal and speech recordings or miking instruments. The gold-coated large diaphragm capsule in "real" condenser technology is responsible for the balanced, nuanced sound.The combination of the handmade capsule, the proven electronics in class A circuitry and the output transformer specially made for the sE2300 ensure first-class sound quality and that "certain something". The carefully selected components and the revised electronics design deliberately dispense with integrated circuits (ICs).The switchable pre-attenuation filters enable a high dynamic range and guarantee clean processing of very high sound pressure levels. The switchable high-pass filter suppresses low-frequency noise and compensates for the proximity effect.High reliability, even in demanding stage use, is guaranteed by the robust metal construction and the high production standards.The sE2300 has a switch for selecting the pre-attenuation filter, the high-pass filter and the polar pattern.pre-attenuation filterThe pre-attenuation filter switch is located on the left side of the microphone. When activated, it attenuates the signal by 10 or 20 dB to enable recording of loud instruments or near-field microphones without distortion. This also prevents clipping of input stages of audio interfaces, mixers and microphone preamps.high pass filterThe high pass filter switch is located on the right side of the microphone. Wind noise, pop, footsteps or rumble may affect the recording signal. By operating the switch, such interference signals and the resulting distortions are reduced. In the left position the filter starts at 80Hz, in the right one at 160Hz. In addition, the high-pass filter reduces the bass increase that occurs when the miking distances are small due to the proximity effect.polar patternThe switch for selecting the polar pattern is located in the middle of the rear of the microphone. It enables a precise selection of the directional characteristic (figure-of-eight, cardioid or omnidirectional) and thus enables a wide range of possible applications.Scope of delivery: sE2300 microphoneMicrophone spider with thread adapterpop filtersTechnical specificationsCapsule 1" condenser capsulePolar pattern figure eight, cardioid, omnidirectionalTransmission range 20 - 20,000 HzSensitivity 24 mV/Pa (-32.5 dBV)Max.
