Overview

ES945O/TB3

Audio-Technica has taken its low-profile ES945O omnidirectional boundary microphone and given it an even smaller footprint, making it a great choice for installations with limited space or where a very clean, inconspicuous look is desired. The miniature ES945O/TB3 still gives you the same clear, highly intelligible audio of its larger sibling, mounting unobtrusively in tabletops, ceiling or panels for conferencing, recording, monitoring and other demanding sound pickup applications.

Protected by a rugged all-metal case with a two-layer steel mesh grille, the microphone’s omnidirectional polar pattern affords a 360° pickup angle, while its UniGuard® RFI-shielding technology provides outstanding rejection of radio frequency interference (RFI).

The ES945O/TB3 is equipped with a self-contained power module with a TB3M (mini-XLR) output connector, eliminating the need for an external power module. It also comes with a TA3F-to-XLR cable, allowing for installation with standard XLR inputs. The microphone is available in black (ES945O/TB3) and white (ES945WO/TB3), and comes with a pair of rubber isolators for optional mechanical isolation from the mounting surface.
