The sE X1S microphone sets a new standard of quality and value in the condenser mic market. Replacing the original X1, the X1S comes with a higher specification, better quality sound and at a lower price.
Hand-Made Mic Capsule
Just like its predecessor, the X1S utilizes a hand-made condenser capsule, meticulously constructed and tuned in sE's capsule room by technicians with decades of experience.
This results in a capsule built like the world's finest musical instruments - and a capsule truly up to the challenge of recording them.
Top Quality Electronics
Where the original X1 was powerful, the redesigned electronics of the X1S take its performance to a whole new level, giving it the highest dynamic range in its class.
Its internal re-design also allows for improved sensitivity, dramatically increased SPL handling (up to 160dB!), and a huge reduction in self-noise.
