What the product is

The sE Electronics X1 A is a medium-diaphragm cardioid condenser microphone finished in white for the 25th anniversary edition. It ships with a Kellards 20' XLR cable and a microphone stand with boom, so you can start recording straight away. The electret capsule covers 20 Hz to 20 kHz with 16 dBA self-noise and needs 48V phantom power to operate.

Who it suits and who should look elsewhere

Home-studio owners and content creators wanting a first large-capsule mic with a low-cut filter and -20 dB pad will find the bundle convenient. Buyers who need multiple polar patterns, a built-in shock mount or a microphone that runs without phantom power should look at other models.

How it fits into a build

Plug the XLR cable into an audio interface or mixer that supplies 48V phantom power and mount the mic on the included boom stand. The selectable 100 Hz high-pass filter reduces rumble, while the pad handles sources up to 150 dB SPL without distortion, freeing you from needing an external attenuator.

Questions about this item

What do I need to supply 48V phantom power to this X1 A microphone?

You need an audio interface, mixer, or preamp that provides 48V phantom power on its XLR input to operate this condenser microphone.

Can I use the included 20' XLR cable with older dynamic microphones that do not require phantom power?

Yes, the Kellards XLR-P20T Pro cable carries balanced audio and will work with any microphone using a standard 3-pin XLR connection regardless of power needs.

How can I verify the low-cut filter and pad switches are functioning after I set up the bundle?

Engage the 100 Hz low-cut switch and listen for reduced low-frequency rumble; engage the -20 dB pad and confirm loud sources like drums no longer distort at high gain settings.
