The Beyerdynamic ribbon technique represents a major technological breakthrough in microphone manufacturing. Incorporating a unique high energy transducer which has a flat frequency response of 50 to 18,000 Hz, the performance of the M 260 is approached by very few professional microphones in the upper price bracket. Due to a ribbon transducer, only 2 microns thick, with a length of 0.85" and a mass of only 0.00034 of a gram, the resultant complete absence of non-linear distortion creates startling clarity and transparency of the sound picture. The hypercardioid characteristic of this microphone is such that unwanted sound is heavily dampened reaching a maximum of 20 db at 120 degrees (normally cardioids provide greatest rejection at 180 degrees). The microphone is fitted with a readily accessible "on-off" switch. The M 260 withstands the rigors of professional use and is completely unaffected by humidity and temperatures. Unit is in great condition and functional. This unit is in good condition and tested. Serial no. 17997.
