Mercenary Audio - Josephson C550H 1/2" measurement microphone

Measurement microphones are often put in places other, studio" microphones don't go; like next submarine engines to measure SPL. Measurement mics need to be ruggest and consistent, both qualities embodied in the Josephson C550. They have a few versions of this mic available (the version you would order here is the "H") which you can read more about in the PDF below. Feel free to ask us questions about this mic if you have a specific application you need it to work and are not sure which option would work best for your recording environment and test conditions.

Josephson C550H Features

Josephson Series Five microphones are rugged, stable and cost-effective alternatives to high voltage metal diaphragm lab mics for speaker testing, room acoustics, and general audio measurements between 20 Hz and 20 kHz. The 6mm condenser capsule has a permanently polarized backplate and a 3.5痠 polyester diaphragm, metalized with a rugged nickel-chromium alloy. Frequency response is flat ±2 dB from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. Like all Josephson mics, the diaphragm is critically conditioned during manufacture for minimum drift over time. Series Five mics have been in rugged field service for more than ten years, with little or no change in response. Several versions are available for use with a variety of other equipment.

The C550H provides 10 mV/Pa output, suitable for microphone level inputs and may be powered with 24 to 48 volt phantom supplies, and provide symmetrical active balanced outputs. It will also operate on phantom power as low as 15V with some reduction in maximum level.
