Audix M40W6 High-Output Cardioid Ceiling Microphone

Cardioid Hanging Ceiling Microphone for Speech Clarity

The Audix M40W6 is a miniature high-output cardioid condenser ceiling microphone designed to deliver clear, intelligible speech capture from an overhead position. Built for permanent installation, it provides focused voice pickup for conference rooms, classrooms, medical facilities, and presentation environments where clean audio and discreet placement are required.

Controlled Cardioid Pickup for Focused Audio

Featuring a cardioid polar pattern, the M40W6 concentrates on sound sources directly beneath the microphone while minimizing pickup from surrounding noise. This directional control improves speech intelligibility in reverberant spaces and helps reduce unwanted ambient sound in meeting rooms, lecture halls, and distance learning setups.

Flexible Gooseneck for Precise Positioning

A built-in 6-inch flexible gooseneck allows installers to accurately aim the microphone toward presenters, seating areas, or workstations. This adjustable design ensures consistent voice capture without drawing attention to the microphone, maintaining a clean and professional ceiling appearance.

High Output Condenser Performance with Low Noise

The M40W6 uses a miniaturized integrated preamp and a 12mm gold vapor diaphragm to deliver high sensitivity with extremely low self-noise. This design supports distance miking while preserving natural vocal detail, even when speakers are positioned several feet below the microphone.

Reliable Operation in Technology-Heavy Spaces

Integrated RF shielding protects the microphone from interference caused by mobile phones, wireless devices, and other electronic equipment commonly found in modern facilities. The microphone operates on standard 18 to 52V phantom power, eliminating the need for external power supplies and simplifying system integration.

Installer-Friendly Cabling for Permanent Systems

An integrated cable terminates to a Phoenix connector, providing a secure and professional connection for fixed installations. Optional junction box compatibility supports clean cable management and compliance with commercial installation requirements in corporate, educational, and healthcare environments.
