A Low-Profile, Great-sounding Hanging Condenser Mic!

The Audio-Technica U853RW hanging condenser microphone gives you an unobtrusive, incredibly clear-sounding way to capture overhead audio from choral, orchestral, and house of worship applications. The U853RW features a UniGuard design that makes it practically immune to RF interference. This phantom-powered mic features a cardioid pickup pattern, allowing it to capture sound accurately while rejecting outside noise. It also includes an 80Hz low-cut filter, power module with XLRM connector, and 2-stage foam windscreen. A steel hanger, and stand adapter are also packaged with the U853RW.

Audio-Technica U853RW Hanging Cardioid Condenser Microphone Features:
  • White finish makes it ideal for house of worship applications
  • Designed for suspension over choirs, instrumental groups and theater stages
  • Superior off-axis rejection for maximum gain before feedback
  • UniGuard RFI-shielding technology offers outstanding rejection of radio frequency interference (RFI)
  • UniSteep filter provides a steep low-frequency attenuation to improve sound pickup without affecting voice quality
  • Accepts interchangeable elements to permit angle of acceptance from 90° to 360°
  • Low-profile design with low-reflectance finish for minimum visibility


The Audio-Technica U853RW hanging condenser microphone is a low-profile, accurate, and effective sound reinforcement tool!

Our Customers Say...

My Sales Engineer is the best. If I need it tomorrow, I have it tomorrow. He makes sure everything is in order and that I'm set up right. I've spent a lot of money at other places, too, but I don't remember them calling me to make sure everything's okay.
