A Discreet Overhead Mic Package!

The MicroBoom MB5055 gives you the Audix 50" MicroBoom arm with their high-quality MB5055 mini cardioid condenser mic - a great all-in-one package for overhead stage miking of orchestras and choirs, ambient room miking, drum-miking, and more. The boom in the MicroBoom MB5055 package can be used in either a horizontal or a vertical position, while the upper end of the boom holds a mini-XLR connector to securely hold the mic in place. The mic has a built-in low noise preamplifier so no bulky external supply is needed. If you want a clean, professional, and elegant miking solution, you'll find it with the Audix MicroBoom MB5055.

The Audix M5055 delivers superb sound. It has a fully integrated preamp and detachable cable, as well as strong shielding from interference. It's a great overhead mic for choir and group vocals, on acoustic instruments, for ambient room miking, symphonic area miking, speech presentations, cymbals, and more.

The MicroBoom arm combines with the M1255B high-output condenser microphone to become an ideal solution for discreet, overhead miking. This 50-inch carbon fiber boom attaches to any microphone stand, and it weighs in at only 2.5 ounces. Carbon fiber is one of the most lightweight and durable materials on the planet - which is why it's being used to make parts for race bikes, aerospace crafts, motorcycles, and more. The MicroBoom is certainly discrete, but it's also rugged - it has a mini-XLR connector to securely hold the microphone in place while high-quality Mogami cable is used internally to deliver excellent sound to the bottom of the boom, where a mini-XLR male connector awaits.

Phantom power reminder

Terrific mic! It would probably be good to remind the customer this mic requires phantom power. It took me a while to figure that out.
Rated 5/5

Boom mics

These mics did exactly what we wanted them to.
Used for a choir. They also greatly improved our livestream fees quality
Rated 4.5/5

Good but Pricey.

It works just like I hoped it would. I just need another one. It is a bit pricey.

Wonderful microphone solution for choral arrangments

This microphone has meet all my expectations. I am currently using two and have just logged in to order my third. I will say that the picture of the product is misleading as it does NOT come with a stand. Not a deal breaker just was disappointed when it arrived without a stand.

Getting the most for the money isn't just a big deal for our customers, it's also what the artists and engineers at Sweetwater look for when we're shopping for our own gear. That's why we're such fans of Audix microphones. Early on, we discovered must-have Audix mics such as the handheld OM2, the tight and punchy D6 kick mic, and the super-versatile i5. You'll also find Audix specialty hardware like CabGrabbers and D-Vice mic holders in our studios and live rigs. Their drum mic bundles offer amazing value, while our house of worship customers love their MicroBoom line for miking choirs. No matter the application, Sweetwater is happy to recommend the right Audix gear for your needs.
