• sE Electronics X1-S is the new standard when it comes to affordable large diaphragm condenser microphones.
• When it was introduced in 2011, the X1 revolutionized its price range, being able to compete with microphones at a much higher price. And now sE is ready with a refined successor that is cheaper than the original but boasts even more great features:
• With its handcrafted condenser capsule, finely tuned by sE’s technicians, its advanced electronics, robust metal housing, and attenuators and low cut filters, the X1S has the sound and features you expect from a serious high-end studio microphone – but at just a fraction of the price.

sE Electronics X1S

• sE Electronics X1-S is the new standard when it comes to affordable large diaphragm condenser microphones.
• When it was introduced in 2011, the X1 revolutionized its price range, being able to compete with microphones at a much higher price. And now sE is ready with a refined successor that is cheaper than the original but boasts even more great features:
• With its handcrafted condenser capsule, finely tuned by sE’s technicians, its advanced electronics, robust metal housing, and attenuators and low cut filters, the X1S has the sound and features you expect from a serious high-end studio microphone – but at just a fraction of the price.
• Where the original X1 was powerful, the newly designed electronics in the X1S provide performance on a whole different level – with the highest dynamic range in its class. The advanced electronics have also improved the microphone's sensitivity, increased SPL handling (up to 160dB!), and resulted in a massive reduction in self-noise.
• The built-in attenuators (-10dB and -20dB) and low cut filters (80 Hz and 160 Hz) provide increased flexibility and allow for close-miking loud instruments while filtering out low-frequency noise.
• The X1S comes with a microphone clip that fits any microphone stand, but it is also available in a package solution with more equipment.
