DYNAMIC KICK DRUM MICROPHONE

OVERVIEW:

Designed, machined, assembled and tested by Audix in the USA, the
D6 is a dynamic instrument microphone used for stage, studio and
broadcast applications. The D6, which is characterized with a cardioid
pickup pattern for isolation and feedback control, is equipped with
a VLM™ (Very Low Mass) diaphragm for natural, accurate sound
reproduction.
The D6 is lightweight, compact and easy to position. With a wide
frequency response of 30 Hz - 15 kHz and the ability to handle sound
pressure levels in excess of 144 dB, the D6 is an excellent choice for

The D6 includes a precision machined aluminum body, black anodized
finish, laser etched model and serial number, steel mesh grill,
