Review Summary

More compact than I'd realized, with low enough noise floor and high enough sensitivity to work alongside the newer MKH series mics. Yet to test outdoors as I'm awaiting a windshield rig, but performed well indoors as part of an MS rig for capturing wide sources at close range and accurate reverb detail at distance. The build quality appears top notch, making it a great looking microphone too.

If you're in search of a high-quality, professional-grade condenser microphone, look no further than the MKH30P48 Condenser Microphone from Sennheiser. This versatile and reliable microphone is designed with a symmetrical transducer, producing an exceptionally wide and smooth frequency response. This feature makes it particularly suited for capturing the nuanced performances of soloists and small instrumental groups with crystal-clear audio quality.

Built with top-notch quality, the MKH30P48 is not only compact and durable but also boasts a low noise floor and high sensitivity. This makes it capable of working alongside newer MKH series mics, capturing wide sources at close range and accurate reverb detail at a distance.
