The CK43 is a reference supercardioid condenser capsule with studio-quality audio
performance. Due to the narrow 95° pickup angle, the supercardioid polar pattern is a good
choice for all situations when unwanted noise typically arrives from the sides (e.g. in places of
worship) and where people talk into the microphone from greater distances.
The CK43 capsule is integrated into an extremely slim and rugged metal housing. It fits any
mounting module of the Modular Plus Series. To prevent contact problems the capsule is
equipped with large-area, self-cleaning, gold-plated contacts with deep threads, which
prevent misalignment and ensure extra-long life. The CK43 comes complete with a highly
efficient windscreen.
