Product details

Sennheiser MKH 8040 Condenser Microphone

The Sennheiser MKH 8040 is a modular cardioid condenser mic with 3050 kHz response, ultra-low distortion, and 142 dB SPL handling. Ideal for spot miking, surround, and reverberant rooms; symmetrical transducer, Nextel finish, and minimal self-noise ensure transparent, professional audio.

This highly versatile cardioid condenser microphone excels in challenging acoustic environments where rear rejection and clarity are critical. Its symmetrical RF condenser transducer with dual backplates delivers an exceptionally wide 3050,000 Hz frequency response with ultra-low distortion and self-noise (13 dB-A), capturing pristine detail without coloration. The modular design allows capsule interchangeability and compact transport, while the non-reflective Nextel coating ensures discreet placement in broadcast or film. With 142 dB max SPL and accurate directional control, it's perfect for spot miking instruments, vocals in reverberant spaces, or as part of stereo/surround arrays, trusted by professionals for transparent, reliable performance.
