What's better than one world-class studio mic? A matched pair!The sE7 sideFire possesses all the clarity and balance of the original sE7 small-diaphragm condenser mic, with a clever twist. Its rotated capsule makes it a go-to for close-miking in tight spots where a traditional top-address pencil mic gets in the way. Whether you're Tucking it in near toms, fitting it under cymbals, or sliding it in front of a guitar cab or piano soundboard, the sideFire’s design makes placement more intuitive, keeps the performers happy, and never compromises tone. Built around a discrete class-A circuit and a transformerless output, the sideFire delivers a clean, detailed sound that holds up across instruments, from acoustic strings and choirs to overheads and percussion. A switchable -20dB pad and 80Hz low-cut filter give you the tools to tame hot sources or rumble, while the mic’s high SPL handling means it won’t flinch when you use the pair as room mics for the Djent Metal band. It’s a workhorse with finesse, ideal for studio setups, live stages, and anywhere space is tight, but expectations are high.SE Electronics sE7 sideFire Matched Pair ApplicationsAcoustic guitarChoirOrchestral + stringsPiano, woodwindsDrumsPercussionCymbals / OHSE Electronics sE7 sideFire Matched Pair IncludesMatched pair sE7 Side Fire2 x mic clips2 x windscreensSE Electronics sE7 sideFire Matched Pair FeaturesSide address capsule to allow for miking of tight spacesOptimized acoustic design, discrete class-A circuitry and a transformerless outputClear, natural sound quality at all frequenciesSwitchable -20dB attenuation padHigh sound pressure level (SPL) handling capabilitySwitchable low-cut 80 Hz filterUltra low-noise componentsSE Electronics sE7 sideFire Matched Pair SpecificationsComponentsCapsule: 1 / 2" Back-electret condenser capsulePowerElectrical impedance:1k OhmsConnectivity: 3-pin male XLR connectorPowering: 48V Phantom Power (P48 according to IEC 61938)SoundPolar patterns: CardioidFrequency range: 20 Hz - 20 kHzSensitivity: 19 mV / Pa (-34.5 dBV)Max SPL: 136 / 156 dB (0 / 20 dB attenuation pad)Equivalent noise level: 16 dBDynamic range: 120 / 140 dB (0 / 20 dB attenuation pad)Signal to noise ratio: 78 dBLow-cut filter: 80 Hz, 6 dB / Oct, switchableAttenuation pad: 20 dB, switchableCurrent consumption: 3.0 mADimensionsMic Diameter: 23 mm (0.91 in.)Mic length: 130 mm (5.12 in.)Mic weight: 163 g (5.75 oz.)What's in the boxsE7 sideFire microphonemic clip (with thread adapter)wind screen SE Electronics sE7 sideFire Matched Pair Matched Pair of Side Address Small Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser Microphones.
