Item Description
Listed 2 months ago
This is a pair of MXL Model 840 Small Diaphragm Condenser "pencil" mics with shock mounts and all accessories in the original packing. Only the mics have ever been removed from the box. Shock mounts have never been removed or used. I bought these because I got called once a year to play piano with a big band, so I used these to mic the piano through a small mixer into headphones. So, once a year they would get used and then back into the box. The gig ended so I'm downsizing. I don't see any marks at all, and I tested them today. They need phantom power to operate. Thanks for looking!
Here's a blurb from MXL:
he 840 Pair from MXL comprises two small-diaphragm condenser microphones suitable for stereo recording of drum sets, acoustic guitars, pianos, strings or anything else that requires stereo attention. A set of shockmounts is included with this pair of microphones, allowing you to utilize the 840s right out of the box. Fast transient response ensures accuracy of sonic impact, while a high SPL of 137 dB allows you to capture truly loud sound sources. Additionally, the microphones' cardioid polar pattern gives you the ability to truly hone in on the sonic sweet spot of any given sound.
