Mojave MA-50 Large-Diaphragm Transformerless Condenser Microphone
The Mojave MA-50 is a professional-grade, transformerless large-diaphragm condenser microphone engineered by renowned designer David Royer.

Known for its ability to capture clear, precise sound and fast transients, the MA-50 addresses common transformerless microphone limitations, delivering a rich, distortion-free recording even at high SPLs of up to 140 dB.
