Beyerdynamic - M160 - Dynamic Double Ribbon Microphone

The Beyerdynamic M160 is a handcrafted dynamic double-ribbon microphone, designed to capture sources with warmth, silky smoothness, and exceptional transient accuracy. Its unique hypercardioid polar pattern, rare among ribbon microphones, offers outstanding isolation, reducing background noise by up to 25 dB at 110° while minimizing pickup from behind. This precision makes it equally at home in the studio or on stage, delivering faithful and detailed reproduction for a variety of instruments.

From drum overheads and guitar cabinets to brass, strings, and acoustic instruments, the M160 delivers a balanced, natural sound with high impulse fidelity. Its brass construction, pure aluminum diaphragm, and finely tuned response ensure both durability and tonal integrity. The M160 is also a perfect companion to the Beyerdynamic M130 for mid/side miking applications, offering engineers maximum creative flexibility. With its robust build and refined sonic profile, the M160 stands as a versatile tool for professional audio capture.
