The D2 is characterized with a hypercardioid pickup pattern for isolation and feedback control and is equipped with a VLM™ (Very Low Mass) diaphragm for natural, accurate sound reproduction.
The D2 is lightweight, compact and easy to position. With a wide frequency response of 80 Hz - 18 kHz and the ability to handle sound pressure levels in excess of 144 dB, the D2 is an excellent choice for miking instruments with a percussive nature such as rack toms, congas, saxophone, guitar cabinets and brass.
The D2 includes a precision machined aluminum body, Black anodized finish, laser etched model and serial number, steel mesh grill, Switchcraft® or Audix XLR connector and is supplied with a tension-fit heavy duty nylon mic clip.
