Sennheiser MKH 8090

The MKH8090 is a high-end RF condenser microphone with a wide cardioid pick-up pattern. It is the ideal main microphone when less acoustic impression of space is demanded.As a support microphone it excels in capturing larger groups of instruments. The microphone operates on the RF principle that has been used by Sennheiser for more than 50 years, n... moreow brought to the highest level of perfection. Among the many advantages of this principle are an extremely low inherent self-noise, the capability to handle high sound pressure levels without distortion, and a high resistance to adverse climatic conditions.FeaturesWide cardioid pick-up patternWide frequency response (30 - 50,000Hz)Very natural soundCan be used as an digital microphone – with the MZD8000 digital moduleExceptionally low inherent self-noiseSymmetrical transducer technology ensures extremely low distortionTransformerless, fully floating balanced outputHigh output signalRugged metal housing with non-reflective Nextel® coatingExtremely weather-proof due to high-frequency circuitExtensive range of accessoriesTimbrally identical with the other 8000-series microphones for optimum aural compatibilitySpecificationsAudio-XLR connector: XLR-3M balanced, transformerless, floatingFrequency response: 30Hz - 50kHzTransducer principle: RF condenser microphonePick-up pattern: wide cardioidSensitivity in free field, no load (1kHz): 20mV/Pa (34dBV/Pa) with filter module MZF8000: 6.3mV/Pa ( 44dBV/Pa)Nominal impedance: 25OhmsMin. terminating impedance: 2000OhmsPhantom powering: 48V +/- 4VEquivalent noise level: 13dB(A)Equivalent noise level weighted as per CCIR 468-3: 23dBMaximum sound pressure level (passive): 142dB SPL with and without filter module MZF8000Current consumption: 3.3mADimensions: diameter 19mm, length 41mm (incl.
