## Description

The Neumann U 87 Ai is probably the best-known and most frequently used studio microphone the world over. Its smooth and refined sound is as iconic as its elegant exterior design. The U 87 Ai is the standard microphone for speech and vocals. Three polar patterns plus pad and low cut options make it adaptable to a wide range of applications.Omnipresent Yet UniqueThe 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. What 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.Classic Neumann Engineering Technically 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. The 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.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect and Original packaging

Packaged well in the original Neumann packaging. Best microphone ever.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sound quality too good
*by N***S on April 10, 2020*

From having the NT1a to the NTK to now this my god. I don't ever think i need to upgrade my microphone ever again.

### ⭐ If this microphone makes your voice sound better, you're clearly mistaken
*by P***E on December 14, 2016*

You're kidding me for a microphone right!!!!? My voice rocks on a 3 pack mic set that costs $50 bucks. It's Ludacris...not the rapper...to me that a microphone could cost this much. If this microphone makes your voice sound better, you're clearly mistaken! Consider musical talents that don't include vocals...just saying.
