Designed, assembled and tested by Audix in the USA, the OM2 is a dynamic vocal microphone used for a wide variety of live and studio applications. The OM2 provides clear and accurate sound reproduction, resistance to feedback and the ability to handle very high SPL (Sound Pressure Levels) without distortion. The OM2 is designed with a tight and uniformly controlled hypercardioid polar pattern which helps to isolate the vocals from the rest of the instruments on stage. With a wide frequency range of 50 Hz - 16 kHz, the OM2 employs a VLM™(Very Low Mass) diaphragm for natural sound with exceptional transient response. The OM2 is constructed a with slight bass proximity and a tailored mid-range, giving it a full bodied sound on small to mid-size PA systems without compromising performance on larger systems. The OM2 is well balanced, comfortable to hold, durable, and designed with high standards and tight tolerances. The OM2 is manufactured with a precision die cast zinc alloy body, durable black E-coat finish, dent resistant steel mesh grill and gold plated XLR connector.
