The Audix MB5055 is a 50 inch Carbon Fiber Boom System with High Output M1255B Cardioid Condenser Microphone.

The M1255B, a miniaturized condenser microphone with a fully integrated preamp and detachable cable, is designed with a very high sensitivity for distance miking. Applications include ceiling mount or table mount for conferencing, overhead choir miking, location recording, audience or room miking.

The M1255B has complete immunity from RF interference caused by cell phones and GSM devices. The M1255B, which is equipped with a cardioid capsule, is also available with hypercardioid, omni or shotgun capsules, giving the microphone the unique ability to be used in a wide variety of live, studio and broadcast applications.

The MicroBoom is available in two models, the MICROBOOM-50, which is 50 inches (1270 mm) long and the MICROBOOM-84, which is 84 inches (2134 mm) long. They are each made from a carbon fiber rod that can be utilized with any of the condenser microphones in the Micros series. Lightweight and able to attach to any microphone stand, the MicroBoom, is a problem solver for many hard-to-reach miking applications including choir, plays, and orchestra.

The MicroBoom can used with a choice of capsules in the Micros series, offering a broad choice of pick-up pattern and frequency response. High quality shielded cable is used internally to insure the cleanest audio signal path between the microphone and the bottom of the boom, which terminates in a mini-XLR male connector. The stand adapter designed for the MicroBoom allows for total control over the angle, rotation, and position of the carbon fiber rod. A metal thumbscrew locks the rod firmly in place. The final angle and position of the microphone is controlled by using the flexible metal gooseneck just below the microphone. The MicroBoom provides an ultraclean, professional, and elegant appearance on stage while providing exceptional performance and portability.

The Audix MB5055s 50-inch carbon boom paired with the high output Audix M1255B mic gives you exceptional coverage and unsurpassed audio fidelity. Equipped with an adjustable clutch for mic stand mounting, the laser thin carbon fiber boom is very light, very portable, and non reflective so that it never blocks the action even in video applications.
