High-Fidelity Audio Capture
The Stager SR-66 microphone is engineered for precision, offering a high-fidelity sound with an extended frequency range and precise transient response, ideal for capturing natural audio.
The Stager SR-66 is a long-ribbon microphone engineered for high-fidelity audio capture, offering precise transient response, extended frequency range, and natural sound reproduction at an accessible price.
At the core of the SR-66 is a 3-inch by 0.23-inch corrugated aluminium ribbon, which delivers a smooth and detailed sonic character. This element is housed within a Neodymium motor assembly that maintains a powerful and stable magnetic field, maximising sensitivity and dynamic range. Stager Microphones integrates a proprietary 1:32 toroidal transformer, meticulously designed to ensure optimal impedance matching and signal integrity, allowing the microphone to preserve audio with exceptional clarity.
With no active electronics or internal amplification, the SR-66 employs a purely passive design that maintains the authenticity of the source material. The microphone captures sound without coloration, ensuring a natural and organic representation of instruments and vocals. This design choice enhances reliability and minimises potential interference, making it a preferred option for engineers who require an uncompromised ribbon microphone.
Designed for mid to near-field applications, the SR-66 excels in a variety of recording environments, from drum overheads to vocal tracking. Its figure-eight polar pattern provides excellent side rejection, enabling superior control over room reflections and isolation of the sound source. The low-frequency response remains tight, with minimal proximity effect, while the midrange offers a natural presence and the high-end delivers detailed articulation. This balance makes the SR-66 a versatile tool in both studio and live settings.
Machined with precision in the United States and assembled in Nashville, Tennessee, the SR-66 is crafted for durability. A robust K&M microphone clip ensures secure positioning, offering stability and ease of placement in various configurations. To protect the microphone during transport and storage, it comes housed in a foam-lined wooden case. Weighing just 8.9 ounces, it provides a lightweight yet rugged build suited for demanding professional use.
With a sensitivity of -50dBV/Pa, the SR-66 captures subtle nuances with accuracy, making it an essential addition to any professional microphone collection. Its Neodymium magnet structure, figure-eight polar pattern, and high-efficiency toroidal transformer work in unison to deliver outstanding performance across a range of recording applications. Whether used in a studio or on stage, the SR-66 offers superior sound reproduction with the reliability expected from a premium ribbon microphone.
