those dynamics which can easily handle.
Now this is no more a consideration for those who want a studio
grade true condenser microphone when Superlux S125 is ready for
all challenges.

cut out those un-wanted stage noises for clean sound even in noisy
environment.
The triple layers wind screen drop down blowing noises to the
minimum when S125 facing up-close settings.
Not only a professional choice for vocal miking, S125 is also a
