Like its big brother, the K2, the RØDE NTK is also a tube condenser microphone for studio recordings with impressive clarity and warmth. Its cardioid polar pattern makes it ideal for recording instruments. The electronics include a sorted 6922 dual triode tube and other audiophile components that make the most of the transducer's astonishing sensitivity. The result is an ultra-wide dynamic range, very low self-noise and the characteristic warmth of tubes. The NTK is perfect for vocals, acoustic instruments, drum overhead, guitar amps and pianos. The RØDE NTK is designed and manufactured in Australia and is backed by a free 10-year RØDE warranty. • Large 1" capsule with gold-plated diaphragm • Class A tube circuitry • Pre-sorted 6922 dual triode tube • External power supply • Internally suspended within the capsule • High RF interference rejection • Extremely low self-noise • Wide dynamic range • Robust heat-treated steel grille Acoustic Principle: Pressure Gradient - Active Electronics: Valve/tube impedance converter with bipolar output buffer - Capsule: 1.00" - Polar Pattern: Cardioid - Pickup: Side - Frequency Response: 20Hz - 20kHz - Output Impedance: 200Ω - Max.
