Engineered and manufactured in Austria, its high sensitivity and low self-noise means it can handle everything from a whisper to extreme SPLs without distortion, making it the perfect choice for studio, live and broadcast applications. The unique ceramic capsule design is so consistent, the OC18 can be match-paired with any other OC18 or paired with any OC818 set in cardioid mode.
