Very crisp, clean vocal pickup, good siblance and very clear. Pick up area is up to six feet with minimal echo. Should be a little heavier so the cable doesn't move the mic on the table, but a bit of gaffer's tape handled that pesky cable. Not too pretty, but it did the job. Good long cable, too. Also, XLR male on pre-amp end of cable, so its a balanced output for pro use. Bought two. Sounds better than the older more expensive larger model. Review: It works beautifully - We are using these for our theater productions. The units are quite small, about the size of a pack of cigarettes. They are surprisingly sensitive. Our stage is 30 feet wide, but we can effectively cover it all with just one mic. However, we use three - left, center and right stage locations for productions. The only complaint I have is that I would prefer that the mini-XLR connector come out the side rather than the rear. Since we place the mics at the stage lip, which is raised, since the cable comes out the rear and the cable can only be bent so much as it runs along the lip, the mic must be moved farther out onto the stage than I would like. ## Features - Low profile for minimum visibility - Wide-range condenser element with low-mass diaphragm for superior performance - Self-contained electronics eliminate need for external power modules - Rugged design and construction - 25" (7.6 m) detachable cable (TA3F to XLRM-type) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #7,091 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #74 in Multipurpose Condenser Microphones | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 255 Reviews | ## Images ![PRO44 Cardioid Condenser Boundary Microphone - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61LrUgoXHXL.jpg) ![PRO44 Cardioid Condenser Boundary Microphone - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61V0z4bE72L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: I have a church stage about 30x20. If I were to get 6 of these mics and mount them upside down about 10 ft in the air, would it do well for plays?** A: Hanging in the air is wrong for this style of mic, there are choir mics for that purpose but those don't work great for play productions. Despite the other answers that this is only for a conference table, this type of mic is often used along the edge of a stage. 6 sounds like too many for your stage size. 2 or perhaps 3 would suffice with the right spacing, but as someone else pointed out they should be surface mounted alongside the front edge of the stage. **Q: Does the base have mounting holes? I'd like to replace a mike that is currently mounted to the inside of the piano lid.** A: Hello! Thank you for writing to us! The bottom of the microphone has two holes for screw-heads. Y2PLAY Stores - 1-800-695-4808 **Q: Does it work with Canon Vixia camcorder? Hr f11 older model.** A: Hello. This microphone is a condenser mic and would require phantom power, and an XLR input on your camera (or a separate adapter cable). You would need to verify your camera's compatibility with phantom-powered external microphones to see if this would work. Thank you for your interest! Y2PLAY Stores - 800-695-4808. **Q: does it include cable** A: Yes, it comes with a detachable 15 foot cable that has XLR on one end and what looks like mini XLR on the other end. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sensational *by O***L on January 18, 2014* the best boundary mic for $100 you'll find anywhere.

Once the mic is EQ'd and dialed in, it sounds great. I also use a second one of these inside of a piano (just make sure you secure it to the lid). Open or closed, it works like a charm, but again, it needs to be dialed in depending on whether the piano lid is open or closed (if mounted to the lid). ## Frequently Bought Together - Audio-Technica PRO44 Cardioid Condenser Boundary Microphone - 1 Male to 2 Female XLR Y Splitter Micrphone Cable,(11.8 inches / 2 Pack) 3pin XLR Male to Dual XLR Female Y-Splitter Balanced Mic Audio Cables for Stereo Mic to L & R Audio Track - VCE 6.35mm (1/4 inch) Male to 3.5mm (1/8 inch) Female Stereo Audio Jack Adapter for Aux Cable, Guitar Amplifier, Headphone, 2 Pack --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/5709160-pro44-cardioid-condenser-boundary-microphone](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/5709160-pro44-cardioid-condenser-boundary-microphone) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-01*
