Audio-Technica U843R Three-Element Multidirectional Boundary Microphone

Versatile Microphone for Professional Audio and Video Conferencing
The Audio-Technica U843R Three-Element Multidirectional Boundary Microphone is a highly adaptable solution for a wide range of professional audio and video conferencing needs. Featuring three cardioid condenser elements in a single housing, this phantom-powered microphone offers exceptional flexibility in surface-mount installations. Whether you're conducting a conference call, webinar, or live meeting, the U843R ensures clear and intelligible sound capture, even in large, challenging spaces. Its multi-directional capabilities make it a versatile tool for any professional setup.

360° and 300° Coverage for Maximum Flexibility
One of the standout features of the U843R is its ability to easily adjust the coverage area. With levers on the microphone base, two of the three elements can be repositioned to provide either 360° or 300° coverage. This adaptability allows you to tailor the microphone's pickup pattern to suit your environment and needs. Whether you require full room coverage or more focused pickup, the U843R can be customized quickly and without the need for tools or disassembly, making it perfect for dynamic, ever-changing setups.

Multiple Polar Patterns for Advanced Sound Capture
The U843R’s individual elements can be powered and used separately or in any combination, providing additional versatility in its performance. For example, powering two elements creates a figure-of-eight polar pattern, which is perfect for capturing sound from multiple sources in a room. When only a single element is powered, the microphone functions as a standard cardioid boundary microphone, ideal for focused sound pickup. This combination of flexible polar patterns allows you to optimize the microphone for a wide variety of use cases, from small meetings to larger conference settings.

Easy Installation with Recessed Cable Pathways
Installing the U843R is quick and hassle-free, thanks to its innovative cable routing system. The microphone features four recessed pathways on its base, allowing you to route the cable as needed without the use of tools or disassembly. This feature ensures that the U843R can be easily integrated into any room layout, whether you need to feed the cable through a table surface or along a wall. The user-friendly design makes setup straightforward, saving valuable time during installation.

Enhanced Durability and Sound Quality
The U843R is built with both durability and performance in mind. Its heavy die-cast case ensures long-lasting protection, while the non-slip silicone foam bottom pad minimizes the coupling of surface vibrations to the microphone, improving sound quality. Additionally, the small-diameter capsules near the boundary eliminate phase distortion and deliver clear, high-output performance, while the low-frequency attenuation improves sound pickup without compromising voice clarity. This design ensures that your conferences, meetings, and recordings are captured with exceptional audio quality.

Advanced RFI Shielding for Clear Audio in Any Environment
Thanks to Audio-Technica's UniGuard® RFI-shielding technology, the U843R offers superior rejection of radio frequency interference (RFI), which can often disrupt audio performance. This advanced technology ensures that the microphone performs reliably, even in environments with high electronic interference. Whether you are working in a conference room full of electronic devices or a broadcast studio, the U843R delivers consistent, clear sound without unwanted noise, making it ideal for professional and high-demand environments.
