Stager Microphones SR-2N

Description

While weighing in at under one pound, the SR-2N crams
an inordinate amount of size into the sound of your tracks. Employing
the same ribbon and toroidal output transformer as the company’s
flagship model SR-1A, the Stager SR-2N swaps out the large alnico
magnets with a more contemporary neodymium motor, while simplifying the
housing and mount to put heavyweight punch into a featherweight fighter.
Incredible low-frequency pickup and a neutral midrange
set the stage for a very gentle high-frequency roll off that’s inherent
to classic ribbons — but the SR-2N miraculously loses no transient
detail, and beautifully flatters percussive material and bright sound
sources in a way that won’t make you feel like you’re missing anything
by skipping the EQ.
Stick one up close on the smaller speaker of an old
tube combo for tremendous low-end emphasis, back up a pair to capture
drums with a three-dimensional quality, or…jeez…just leave the thing
on a stand and point it at anything that makes sound, then stretch out a
big ol’ smile when you listen to playback.
