Item Description
Audio-Technica AT2020 Cardioid Condenser Microphone 🎙️ 🌟 The Studio Standard, Starter Price The AT2020 put Audio-Technica condensers on every home studio desk for a reason. It delivers clear, detailed, full-range sound at a price that makes sense for podcasters, streamers, vocalists, and producers building their first serious setup. 🔧 Key Features: - Large-Diaphragm Condenser: 16mm back-electret capsule captures the nuance in vocals and the body of acoustic instruments - Cardioid Polar Pattern: Strong rejection from the sides and rear minimizes room noise, keyboard clicks, and bleed – ideal for untreated rooms - Wide 20Hz–20kHz Response: Extended lows for voice presence and highs that add air without harshness - High SPL Handling: 144dB max SPL takes loud vocals, guitar amps, and percussion without breakup - Low Self-Noise: 20dB SPL self-noise and 124dB dynamic range keep tracks clean for quiet voice-over and delicate acoustic takes - Rugged & Roadworthy: All-metal construction and low-mass diaphragm. Fixed mount threads into the included AT8458a stand clamp - Professional Output: Balanced XLRM output requires 48V phantom power from your interface or mixer 📏 Specs: - Element: Fixed-charge back plate, permanently polarized condenser - Sensitivity: -37dB (14.1mV) re 1V at 1 Pa - Impedance: 100 ohms - Phantom Power: 48V DC, 2mA typical - Weight: 345g / 12.2 oz - Dimensions: 162mm long, 52mm max diameter - Included: AT8458a stand clamp for 5/8"-27 threads, 5/8"-27 to 3/8"-16 adapter, soft protective pouch Why it works: The AT2020’s cardioid pickup focuses on what’s in front of the mic and rejects what isn’t. That makes it forgiving in bedrooms and home offices. The flat, extended response means less EQ needed later – your voice sounds like your voice. And at 144dB SPL, you can point it at a snare or cranked cab and still get a clean take. Good for: Podcasting, streaming, YouTube VO, singer-songwriter vocals, acoustic guitar, drum overheads, and as a first condenser mic for any project studio. Note: Requires 48V phantom power. Pair with a shock mount like the AT8458 and a pop filter for best results.
