Audix M40W6HC Miniature Hypercardioid Ceiling Microphone (White)

Hypercardioid Hanging Ceiling Microphone for Clear Speech Capture

The Audix M40W6HC is a miniature high-output hypercardioid condenser ceiling microphone designed to capture clear, intelligible speech in installed audio environments. Built for overhead placement, it delivers focused voice pickup while reducing ambient noise, making it well suited for conference rooms, classrooms, healthcare facilities, and presentation spaces.

Focused Hypercardioid Pickup for Noise Control

Using a hypercardioid polar pattern, the M40W6HC tightly focuses on sound sources directly below the microphone while rejecting off-axis noise and room reflections. This controlled pickup pattern improves speech clarity in acoustically challenging spaces and helps reduce feedback in sound reinforcement applications.

Flexible Gooseneck for Accurate Aiming

A 6-inch integrated gooseneck allows precise microphone positioning without compromising the clean, unobtrusive appearance required in professional installations. Installers can easily aim the microphone toward seating areas, podiums, or workstations to ensure consistent voice pickup across the coverage area.

High Output Condenser Performance with Low Noise Design

The M40W6HC features a miniaturized integrated preamp and a 12mm gold vapor diaphragm that provide high sensitivity and extremely low self-noise. This design supports distance miking while maintaining natural voice reproduction, even when speakers are positioned several feet below the microphone.

Reliable Operation in Technology-Dense Spaces

Built-in RF shielding protects against interference from 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 design.

Installer-Friendly Wiring for Permanent Installations

An integrated cable terminates to a Phoenix connector, providing a secure and professional connection for permanent installs. Optional junction box compatibility supports clean cable management and compliance with commercial installation standards in boardrooms, educational facilities, and medical environments.
