Sontronics HALO Handheld Dynamic Microphone for Guitar Amps

The Sontronics HALO Handheld Dynamic Microphone for Guitar Amps is a precision-engineered microphone designed specifically to capture the true essence of guitar amplifiers and cabinets. Drawing inspiration from the classic Sontronics STC-80, the HALO refines its capsule design to accurately reproduce the rich tonal frequencies of guitar amps without the need for additional EQ adjustments.

With a frequency response of 50Hz to 15kHz and a cardioid polar pattern, the HALO ensures focused sound capture while minimizing unwanted background noise. It offers a sensitivity of -53dB and an impedance of ≤600 Ohms, delivering clean, detailed, and balanced audio output. The microphone features a standard 3-pin XLR connector for compatibility with professional audio equipment.

Measuring 162 x 113 x 62 mm and weighing 0.396 kg, the HALO is both lightweight and durable. Its robust, vintage-style body design not only provides aesthetic appeal but also ensures long-lasting performance. The microphone includes a spring-mounted capsule system that isolates it from handling noise and stage vibrations, ensuring clarity and stability even in dynamic live environments.

Ideal for both studio and stage use, the HALO excels at capturing the natural sound of guitar amps, cabinets, and other amplified string instruments. It also performs well with vocals, making it a versatile addition to any musician or engineer’s toolkit.

The Sontronics HALO requires no phantom power for operation and comes with a padded storage box and protective dust bag for safe transport. Designed for guitarists, recording engineers, and live performers, the HALO combines modern performance with a distinctive vintage character, delivering exceptional tone, clarity, and style for every setup.
