<h1>SE Electronics X1 S Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphone</h1>
The SE Electronics X1 S is a high-quality condenser microphone intended for a wide range of studio applications, from vocals to drums to acoustic instruments and beyond. Thanks to its custom design and handcrafted 1” true condenser capsule, it delivers pristine sound quality and an even, well-balanced <span style="background-color: initial;">frequency response.</span>
<br /><br />
	The electronics and the switchable attenuation pads ensure a high dynamic range, with high <span style="background-color: initial;">sound pressure level (SPL) handling capability and extremely low-noise components. The </span><span style="background-color: initial;">switchable low cut filters eliminate rumble or footfall noise, and can also compensate for an </span><span style="background-color: initial;">excess of bass frequencies caused by the proximity effect. This enables the X1 S to close-mic </span><span style="background-color: initial;">many instruments including electric guitar speaker cabinets, brass instruments and drums.<br /><br /></span><span style="background-color: initial;">Reliable operation even in demanding on-stage applications in difficult environments is ensured by </span><span style="background-color: initial;">the roadworthy all-metal design, robust construction, and high quality manufacturing standards.</span>
<br /><br />
<h3>Custom Handcrafted Capsule</h3>
Just like its predecessor, the X1 S utilizes a hand-made condenser capsule, meticulously constructed and tuned in sE’s capsule room by technicians with decades of experience.
<br /><br />
This results in a capsule built like the world’s finest musical instruments - and a capsule truly up to the challenge of recording them.
<br /><br />
<h3>High-Performance Electronics</h3>
Where the original X1 was powerful, the redesigned electronics of the X1 S take its performance to a whole new level, giving it the highest dynamic range in its class.
<br /><br />
Its internal redesign also allows for improved sensitivity, dramatically increased SPL handling (up to 160dB!), and a huge reduction in self-noise.
<br /><br />
<h3>Two Switchable Attenuation Levels</h3>
The -10 dB and -20 dB pad switches provide extended dynamic range, enabling a wide range of applications and close-mic techniques for even the loudest instruments...think super-heavy electric guitars, fortissimo brass instruments, and heavy-footed kick drums.
<br /><br />
<h3>Two Switchable Low-Cut Filters</h3>
Selectable at either 80Hz or 160Hz, these two filters help eliminate low-frequency rumble or footfall noise, as well as help compensate for excessive bass (proximity effect) with close-mic techniques.
<br /><br />
<h3>All Metal Housing and Premium Finish</h3>
Unlike the cheaply constructed bodies of some other "entry-level" microphones, the X1 S's all-metal chassis provides efficient rejection of any electrical interference and noise - and the high-quality finish ensures a great look for years to come.

<h3>Gold-Plated XLR Connector</h3>
Ensures loss-free, reliable signal connection for years and years and years and...
