Introduced in 1967, it has shaped the sound of countless hit records for the past 50 years. And when those hits were announced on the radio, many a DJ sat before a U 87 Ai. The legend continues: To this day, no professional recording studio is complete without a Neumann U 87 Ai.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe U 87 Ai is the epitome of a large diaphragm condenser microphone. Its tapered body and iconic headgrille design have become part of the collective consciousness: This is what a studio microphone looks like. The same is true of its sound: The U 87 Ai represents studio quality; it has become the gold standard by which other microphones are measured.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets the U 87 Ai apart is its unique combination of linearity and character. Although its on-axis frequency response is remarkably flat, it does exert certain charisma. It just sounds right! This makes the U 87 Ai both versatile and instantly recognizable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eClassic Neumann Engineering\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTechnically speaking, the U 87 Ai is a traditional design whose timeless formula has remained unchanged for decades. The U 87 Ai uses the same dual diaphragm condenser capsule design as its predecessor, the no less legendary U 67 of the early 1960s. Its head amplifier, too, is based on the same design principles as its tube driven predecessor, but the U 87 Ai realizes them by means of a unique FET circuit with a minimal signal path and a transformer balanced output, ensuring maximum signal integrity and high common mode rejection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a studio microphone of unmatched clarity. Its natural sound and unique midrange presence make the U 87 Ai the ultimate vocal microphone, praised by singers and engineers alike, as well the prime choice for speech applications, such as voice over, dubbing, and audio books. Due to its balanced response in each of its three directional patterns, the U 87 Ai is also a versatile microphone for anything from acoustic guitar to drums overheads. Due to its solid bass response and excellent midrange detail, it is often seen in front of bass and guitar cabinets. For classical recordings, the U 87 Ai is frequently used as a spot mic for soloists, e.g. cello. A stereo pair of U 87 Ais is the preferred choice of many engineers for recording piano in virtually any genre from pop and jazz to classical music.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAcoustical Operating Principle: Pressure gradient transducer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirectional Pattern: Omnidirectional, cardioid, figure-8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency Range: 20 Hz - 20 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSensitivity at 1 kHz into 1 kohm: 20\/28\/22 mV\/Pa ± 1 dB (Omni\/cardioid\/8)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated Impedance: 200 ohms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated Load Impedance: 1 kohms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEquivalent Noise Level, CCIR: 26\/23\/25 dB (Omni\/cardioid\/8)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEquivalent Noise Level, A-Weighted: 15\/12\/14 dB-A (Omni\/cardioid\/8)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal-to-Noise Ratio, CCIR (rel. 94 dB SPL): 68\/71\/69 dB (Omni\/cardioid\/8)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal-to-Noise Ratio, A-Weighted (rel. 94 dB SPL): 79\/82\/80 dB (Omni\/cardioid\/8)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum SPL for THD 0.5%: 117 dB (cardioid)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum SPL for THD 0.5% with Preattenuation: 127 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum Output Voltage: 390 mV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupply Voltage (P48, IEC 61938): 48 V ± 4 V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCurrent Consumption (P48, IEC 61938): 0.8 mA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatching Connectors: XLR3F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 500 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiameter: 56 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 200 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded In Box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2x U 87 Ai MT Microphone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2x EA 87 Shock Mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2x Dust Cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminum Case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\n\nManufacturer: Neumann\u003cbr\u003eModel: U 87 AI MT STEREO SET\u003cbr\u003eSKU: I269558-N-0-WHXX\u003cbr\u003eUPC: 615104085060\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWe are Chuck Levin's Washington Music Center\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince 1958, Chuck Levin’s Washington Music Center has been the trusted destination for musicians and audio professionals across Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
