The SCM 900 microphone offers transformerless balanced outputs and true condenser design (elements constantly
biased by the pre-amp) for exceptionally low self noise and increased dynamic range, enhanced low and high end
response with improved linearity across the frequency range and maximum SPL capacity. Internal Low Cut filter switch to
minimize pop sound and stage rumble.
SCM 900 microphone features a large diaphragm capsule (1.0 inch), hand tooled from brass and featuring an ultra-thin (3-
micron) gold-evaporated on Mylar diaphragm for maximum sensitivity, transient response, long life, detail and tone.
The microphone uses carefully selected Field Effect Transistors (FET), specially chosen for their low distortion and
superior signal-to-noise ratio. (Note: For optimum performance, it is best to let your microphone warm up for 5 to 10
minutes)

construction for the highest structural integrity and rugged reliability. It requires 48V phantom power to operate, typically
supplied by the microphone pre-amplifier or mixing console. The optional Nady SMPS-1 phantom power supply can also
