Audio-Technica U859QL Quick-Mount Gooseneck Microphone, 18.90" Long

Designed to plug directly into a panel- or desk-mounted XLRF-type connector, the U859QL features an ultra-flexible small-diameter gooseneck and accepts interchangeable elements, available in cardioid, hypercardioid, omnidirectional and UniLine line cardioid polar patterns. Equipped with self-contained electronics, the phantom-powered microphone also offers an 80 Hz low-cut UniSteep filter that reduces pickup of low-frequency ambient noise. The microphone is 18.90” long.

The microphone’s cardioid polar pattern provides a 120° angle of acceptance. An XLRM-type connector insert at the base allows the microphone to be plugged directly into an XLRF-type panel jack or microphone cable. The microphone comes equipped with a two-stage foam windscreen. The microphone is enclosed in a rugged housing with a low-reflectance Black finish.
