Product details

The Sennheiser MKH 8040 Stereo Condenser Microphone Set

The Sennheiser MKH 8040 Stereo Condenser Microphone Set is a premium professional recording solution featuring two MKHC 8040 cardioid microphone heads with MZX 8000 XLR modules. Designed for studio, broadcast, orchestral, and surround recording applications, the system delivers exceptional audio detail, ultra-low self-noise, and accurate directional performance in a compact modular design.

The Sennheiser MKH 8040 Condenser Microphone Set is a high-end stereo microphone package engineered for professional recording, broadcast, film scoring, and immersive surround applications. The set includes two MKHC 8040 cardioid condenser microphone capsules paired with two MZX 8000 analog XLR modules, offering outstanding sonic precision and modular flexibility.

The MKH 8040 features a highly accurate cardioid pickup pattern that effectively suppresses unwanted ambient noise, room reflections, and reverberation, making it ideal for recording in acoustically challenging environments. Its exceptionally smooth off-axis response and precise directional characteristics ensure natural and transparent sound capture for instruments, vocals, ensembles, and ambience recording.

Designed using RF condenser technology, the microphone provides an extended frequency response from 35 Hz to 50 kHz, ultra-low self-noise, and extremely high SPL handling capability up to 142 dB SPL. These characteristics make it suitable for both delicate acoustic recordings and high-pressure sound sources.

The modular MKH 8000 system allows flexible configuration using interchangeable capsules and output modules. The included MZX 8000 analog XLR modules provide balanced XLR connectivity with phantom power operation. Finished with a durable anti-glare “Nextel” coating, the microphones are optimized for professional studio and on-location production work.

This stereo set also includes microphone clips, wind protection, and a rugged aluminum carrying case for secure transport and storage.
