SE8 Paired Condenser Mics (set of 2)

Full spectrum. Expanded depth.

This matched pair of sE Electronics SE8 condenser microphones is designed to capture a full and detailed range of sound across a wider space.

Working together, the pair allows both depth and clarity to emerge—especially when working with instruments that carry strong low frequencies and a broad spectrum of tone.

About the SE8

The SE8 is a condenser microphone designed to receive a wide and detailed range of sound.

It captures both subtle textures and powerful resonance, making it well suited for:

• Gongs
• Drums
• Crystal singing bowls
• Instruments with both low and high frequency range

Compared to the SE7, the SE8 offers:

• Greater depth in the low end
• More extended high-frequency detail
• Increased ability to handle strong volume
• A fuller and more complete sound overall

Why a Pair

A single microphone captures a portion of the sound.

A pair allows the full field to emerge.

With two SE8 microphones, you can:

• Capture both depth and space more fully
• Create a wider and more immersive sound field
• Allow low tones to develop without being compressed
• Support a more balanced and enveloping listening experience

Placement & Use

Each microphone can typically cover a space of about 3 x 4 feet.

Using two microphones allows you to spread across a larger area or focus on different parts of your setup.

Each microphone connects to a mixer using an XLR cable (sold separately), and requires phantom power.

A Simple Perspective

This pair allows the full voice of the instruments to come forward.

Both the depth of the low tones and the clarity of the higher frequencies are supported, creating a sound that feels more complete and immersive.
