Audix SCX25A

The Audix SCX25A is a premium large-diaphragm studio condenser microphone known for its distinctive design and exceptional sound quality. Engineered with a patented capsule suspension system, its capsule is uniquely isolated within a machined brass ring, reducing acoustic reflections and enhancing sound purity. This design allows the microphone to deliver a clear, natural, and open-air sound with remarkable detail and minimal interference. Its wide cardioid polar pattern ensures consistent performance, blending direct sound from the source with the ambiance of the room, making it versatile for various recording environments.

The SCX25A is affectionately nicknamed "The Lollipop" due to its unique appearance and is ideal for capturing acoustic instruments like pianos, guitars, woodwinds, and symphony sections. It also excels as a studio or ambient room microphone for vocals, drum overheads, and voice-over work. With a maximum sound pressure level of over 135 dB and ambient noise rejection of up to 20 dB, this microphone is perfect for high-quality, professional recordings. Its precision-machined brass construction and roadworthy design ensure durability, while the elegant appearance and cutting-edge performance reflect its world-class craftsmanship.
