Matched Pair of Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphones for Stereo Recording
The Audix SCX25AMP is a matched stereo pair of SCX25A large diaphragm cardioid condenser microphones designed for accurate instrument recording in studio, live sound, and broadcast applications. This bundle includes two SCX25A microphones, DCLIP snap-on mic clips, and a protective zippered carrying case, giving engineers a ready-to-use stereo solution. Whether capturing piano, percussion, choir, or acoustic ensembles, this system delivers detailed, natural sound with precise stereo imaging.
Transparent Sound for Acoustic Instruments and Ensembles
The SCX25A is known for its open and realistic tonal character, making it well suited for piano recording, orchestral sections, acoustic guitar, vibraphone, brass, woodwinds, and overhead drum applications. Its large diaphragm condenser capsule captures subtle dynamics and harmonic detail while maintaining smooth high-frequency response. For engineers searching for a stereo recording microphone pair that translates acoustic complexity faithfully, this system provides consistent results.
Patented Capsule Suspension for Vibration Isolation
Each SCX25A features a patented capsule suspension design in which the 1 inch gold vapor diaphragm is shock-mounted within a precision-machined brass ring. The capsule is mechanically isolated from the microphone body and electronics, reducing vibration transfer and internal reflections. This design contributes to clean transient response and natural spatial reproduction without coloration.
Cardioid Polar Pattern with Consistent Off Axis Response
The cardioid pickup pattern helps reduce bleed from surrounding instruments while maintaining a stable tonal balance across on-axis and off-axis signals. This consistency supports accurate stereo imaging and phase coherence when using the pair for spaced or coincident techniques. Minimal proximity effect ensures natural low-frequency response even when placed closer to sound sources.
Handles High SPL Without Distortion
With the ability to manage sound pressure levels above 135 dB, the SCX25A can capture loud acoustic sources without distortion. This makes the SCX25AMP suitable for dynamic piano passages, percussion, and live ensemble recording. The microphones provide clean output with up to 20 dB of ambient noise rejection, supporting focused instrument capture in both studio and performance environments.
Low Profile Design for Flexible Placement
The distinctive lollipop-style side-address design allows easy placement in tight spaces where traditional large diaphragm microphones may not fit. This low-profile form factor makes positioning simpler under piano lids, above orchestral sections, or in compact studio setups while preserving optimal capsule orientation.
Professional Construction and Included Accessories
Each microphone features a precision-machined brass body with a multilayer Class-A finish, a steel mesh grille, and a gold-plated 3-pin XLR output. The SCX25AMP includes DCLIP snap-on microphone clips and a protective zippered carrying case for transport and storage. Designed, machined, assembled, and tested in the USA, this stereo microphone pair reflects professional-grade engineering and reliability.
