Audibax Berlin 1800 Silver Pro Pack - Cardioid condenser microphone with boom arm, pop filter and studio accessories

The Audibax Berlin 1800 Silver Pro Pack is a complete studio microphone kit designed for vocals, voiceovers, podcasting, and digital content creation. It features a cardioid condenser microphone with a 16mm capsule and a wide frequency response of 40Hz–20kHz , capturing clear vocals and minimizing off-axis noise. The metal body with a gold-plated XLR connector ensures a stable connection, while the included accessories— a boom arm , desktop stand , shock mount , and pop filter —allow you to set up a small studio in minutes.

In terms of specifications, it offers a sensitivity of -43 dB ± 2 dB (0 dB = 1 V/Pa at 1 kHz) , a signal-to-noise ratio ≥ 66 dB , and a maximum SPL of 120 dB —balanced figures for close-range vocals and moderate sources. It operates on plug-in power (1.5–10 V) as per the manual, so it does not require a 48 V power supply. The pack includes two 2.5 m cables (XLR-XLR and XLR-minijack) for integrating the microphone with both XLR-input interfaces/mixers and devices with 3.5 mm microphone inputs. The silver finish and the selection of accessories make this Pro Pack a practical and affordable solution for home studios , course recording, streaming , or voice-over work .

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it need 48V phantom power?
No. According to the Berlin 1800 manual, its operating voltage is 1.5–10 V (plug-in power) . If your interface/mixer has 48 V phantom power, disable it for this microphone or use a suitable adapter/preamp.

Can I connect it directly to the PC?
Yes, using the included XLR-to-3.5mm minijack cable connected to the analog microphone input. For best results in terms of quality and gain, an audio interface is recommended.

What is the recommended usage distance?
Between 10 and 15 cm with the pop filter for vocals; adjust the angle to take advantage of the cardioid pattern and reduce noise.

For instruments?
It's suitable for moderate sources (acoustic guitar, soft overdubs ). For very high levels, use microphone techniques at a greater distance and keep an eye on the maximum SPL of 120 dB .

Compatibility and assembly

• Articulated arm for fixing to a table and tabletop tripod depending on the available space.
• Spider with elastic suspension to decouple keyboard noises or table knocks.
• It includes a foam windscreen and a pop filter to control breathing and plosives.
• Connect via XLR-XLR to an interface/console (phantom power off) or via XLR-minijack to equipment with a 3.5mm microphone input.
