About this product

Product Information

The MXL 990 microphone is a condenser microphone meant for quality professional recording sessions. This MXL microphone features a FET pre amp and contains a well-balanced output. The MXL 990 mic is phantom powered, so its power is delivered through the cables. Unlike some microphones, the MXL 990 doesn't contain an on and off switch. The MXL microphone contains a gold plated plug for high quality and reliable connections. This condenser microphone is cardioid (heart shaped) and contains 200 ohms impedance and a 15 dBm effective output level. This allows it to deliver clear, crisp, and loud sounds, great for personal or professional projects. The microphone is light in weight, weighing just a meager 19.2 oz. The microphone uses a mono audio mode and has a 30 to 20 Hz frequency response. This microphone is capable of professional sound quality, but will also get the job done for amateur uses.

    As advertised. In great shape. Shipped quickly. The box could have been packed better for shipping (very loosely packed), but luckily they arrived with no damage and work just fine.

    Good Mic with potential to be much more

    The MXL990 is well made and sounds surprisingly good for the money. Many people use it as-is with adequate to very good results results. For me, it makes a solid platform for mods and upgrades. A K47 type capsule upgrade makes a huge difference. Searching the internet will reveal lots of upgrade options. It's a popular platform for upgrading and after doing two I can see why.

  • A real sleeper in mic values.

    I recently picked up this model of Marshall's (MXL line of microphones) 990 Stereo condenser mic. It appears to be a solid value (whether new or used) - a no frills & no nonsense design that should meet your needs for stereo recording of ensembles from vocals to instruments and maybe even favorite soundscape. Just make sure your portable recorder/mixing console has 48v phantom power (going to both mic cables!) and a very preferable shock absorbing suspension mount. The dual condenser's angle of pickup is a fixed design- no user adjustable settings for fine tuning the separation of sources. Therefore placement of the performers will be of critical importance to optimize the stereo effect. MXL is apparently no longer offering stereo mics, as a visit to their website shows none in their ...

  • A warm vintage sound at an affordable price .

    This an extremely affordable option for those looking for a large diaphram condenser mic. I use two of them as overhead mics on a vintage Gretsch drum set for jazz recordings. The mics have a very warm sound in this particular application. I have not used them for vocals or acoustic instruments, but I assume that they would deliver the same warm response.

  • Terrific studio mic for unbievable low price.

    This is a great studio vocal recording mic. Prone to feedback of course you will have to screen it or have in seperate room from speakers/boards but awesome spectrum of perfectly clear sounding vocals high to low. Have used mics in studios that were literally 1000's times the price not much if any audible difference from this one. Also must use pop filter.
