CL5 Features

The Samson CL5 condenser has been produced 

using state-of-the-art microphone technology and 

is engineered to the finest detail. Here are some of 

its main features:

•   Extended range linear frequency response 

for optimum reproduction and exception-

ally clear, crisp sound with great transient 

response. 

•  Ultra sensitive, low mass capsules featuring 

three micron, gold-sputtered diaphragms cap-

ture up all of the nuances of any performance.

•   The cardioid polar pattern rejects signals not 

originating directly in front of the mic capsule 

minimizing feedback problems. 

•  High SPL capability of 148 db lending itself to 

a wide range of miking situations like brass 

and percussion.

•  Special shock-mounted capsule to minimize 

handling noise and provide additional protec-

tion.

•  The dual stage windscreen, greatly reduces 

the chance of "p popping". 

•  The CL5 can be mounted on any standard 

microphone stand using the included mic clip. 

•  Rugged die-cast case construction ensures 

reliable performance in even the most 

demanding environments.

•  Gold plated XLR connector provides long-last-

ing reliable connections.

•  Included foam-lined impact resistant alumi-

num carrying case for convenience when 

transporting the CL5 to or from studios and 

venues.
