Description
The Earthworks SR314 brings a measurement-mic mentality to handheld vocal work. Instead of shaping tone through coloration, its small-diaphragm cardioid capsule and Class-A amplifier circuit aim for an extended, flat frequency response from 20 Hz to 30 kHz, with fast, time-coherent impulse response and low self-noise. The result is a vocal signal that arrives at your mixer already clean, cutting down on the corrective EQ, heavy compression, and de-essing that muddier capsules tend to demand.
- Small-diaphragm cardioid condenser capsule with Class-A amplifier circuit
- Flat 20 Hz – 30 kHz frequency response with fast, coherent transient handling
- Cardioid pickup stays consistent out to 90°, with sharp attenuation beyond that and maximum rejection at 180°
- Stable low-end response whether you’re working the capsule up close or backing off for fuller pickup
- Generous headroom before feedback, plus SPL handling up to 145 dB
- 3-pin XLR output, phantom powered at 24–48 VDC
- Precision-machined stainless steel housing for stage-worthy durability
- Includes mic clip and storage bag
That tight, well-behaved polar pattern pays off in real venues: off-axis coloration stays minimal within the working window, monitor wedges and PA bleed get rejected aggressively, and you gain real gain-before-feedback headroom without wrestling the mic. It’s equally at home fronting a house-of-worship system, holding down vocals at a festival, or capturing a live-to-tape performance in the studio. This version wears a stainless steel finish, giving it a clean, understated look on stage or on camera. Pair it with any standard mixer, preamp, or interface that supplies phantom power, and let the SR314 do the tonal heavy lifting before the signal even hits your channel strip.
