Rode M5 Matched Pair 1/2inch Pencil Condenser Microphones

Precision-matched for professional recording applications, this Rode M5 condenser microphone pair delivers exceptional acoustic fidelity with sensitivity variations kept to just 1dB between units. These compact, pencil-style microphones excel in both studio environments and live performance settings, offering versatility for solo vocal work, instrument miking, or stereo recording configurations that capture rich, full-bodied sound.

Built around an acoustic principle pressure gradient design, the M5s feature cardioid polar patterns that provide excellent ambient isolation whilst minimising feedback issues. The active electronics utilise JFET impedance conversion with bipolar output buffering, delivering a comprehensive 20Hz-20kHz frequency response and impressive maximum SPL handling of 140dB. With their low 19dB-A equivalent noise level and high output capabilities, these microphones maintain clarity across demanding recording scenarios.

Each microphone's rugged all-metal construction features a smooth ceramic coating that ensures durability whilst presenting a professional appearance on stage. The package includes essential accessories such as sturdy stand mounts, WS5 pop filter/wind shields, and microphone clips for immediate setup. Compatible with both 24V and 48V phantom power sources, the M5 pair offers flexible connectivity options for various mixing consoles and recording interfaces.
