Description
The BH 2 is a single-pattern member of JZ Microphones’ Black Hole Series, built to deliver the clarity and openness the line is known for without the added cost or complexity of a multi-pattern design. Inside its compact head sits one large, true electrostatic capsule produced with JZ’s proprietary golden drops process — a single, less-center-tap diaphragm finished with a patterned variable sputtering coating using a specially formulated alloy. The result is a diaphragm designed for consistent, low-distortion response across the audible range.
Because the BH 2 offers a fixed cardioid pattern, it’s a straightforward choice for vocalists and instrumentalists who want the Black Hole sound dialed in and ready to go — no switching, no guesswork. Engineers and performers who’ve used the series describe it as smooth, full, and remarkably transparent, characteristics that hold up equally well in the studio or on stage.
