sE Electronics RN17 Cardioid Capsule

sE Electronics RN17 Cardioid Capsule

This interchangeable condenser capsule fits the sE Electronics RN17 microphone body. It provides the cardioid pickup option for that microphone.

Developed in collaboration with Rupert Neve, the RN17 capsule uses a small gold-sputtered diaphragm to follow fast transients and capture fine high-frequency detail.

Each capsule is hand-built and individually tuned. Its externally polarised condenser design is housed in brass for durability and shielding from electrical interference.

The cardioid version is intended for acoustic instruments, percussion and voice in studio and live recording. This listing is for one capsule; a factory-matched pair is a separate configuration.

• A small gold-sputtered diaphragm captures fast transients and delicate high-frequency information.
