The Ultimate Kick Drum Mic! The AE2500 features Audio-Technica's unique dual-element design. This revolutionary concept combines condenser and dynamic capsules within a single housing, positioned in a perfect phase relationship - something that would be nearly impossible to accomplish with separate microphones! Ideal for kick/bass drum applications, the microphone will survive extreme SPLs while providing uncompromising audio quality. The AE2500's dynamic element cleanly captures the attack transients of the beater, while the condenser element renders the internal tonalities of the shell and the instrument as a whole. Features: The ultimate kick-drum mic Revolutionary dual-element design represents a ground-breaking transducer achievement Two elements (condenser and dynamic) are enclosed in a single housing Dynamic element delivers the aggressive attack of the beater while the condenser captures the round tonalities of the shell Elements are positioned in a perfect phase relationship, something practically unachievable with two separate microphones Robust design for enduring dependability on the road Integral 80 Hz HPF switch and 10 dB pad on condenser element Includes a 16.5' (5 m) cable (5-pin XLRF to two standard 3-pin XLRM connectors) for separate control over each element Customer Reviews  Not just a cool kick mic   by Eddie Mapp from new Orleans, La, September 02, 2008 Music Background:  live sound engineer: Evanescence, Stone Temple Pilots, Zakk Wylde's Black Label Society “Placement can be really important with this mic. Try right inside the resonant head (outer) hole and work from there. If you need more attack move the mic closer inside the shell. Sometimes flipping the polarity (phase) can help too. This also doubles as an amazing guitar mic.” • Write Your Own Review More Condenser Microphones from Audio-Technica: · Audio-Technica AT2020 · Audio-Technica AT2041SP Studio Pack · Audio-Technica AT4040 · Audio-Technica AT835b · Audio-Technica AT4047/SV · Audio-Technica AT4050 · Audio-Technica AT2050 · Audio-Technica Pro 45 · Audio-Technica AT831b · Audio-Technica AT3031 View All Products from Audio-Technica  Tell a Friend About the AE2500!  Print This Page See Also:  Condenser Mics
