Product Description

The B-2 Pro is a high-performance dual-diaphragm studio condenser microphone. Vocalists and recording studio owners will be amazed by its uncompromising audio performance and features such as the additional low cut filter. The B-2 Pro provides a slightly pronounced 12 kHz range, producing the kind of "presence" that often eliminates the need for high-frequency EQing that would raise the overall noise floor. The B-2 Pro provides that much-desired transparency that can only be found on high-end large-diaphragm condenser mics. Key features include selectable cardioid, omnidirectional or figure-8 pickup pattern. The low-cut filter removes distracting low-frequency sounds, and built-in shielding minimizes high-frequency interference. A 10 dB attenuator can be used with high volume signal sources. The microphone is delivered in a rugged hard case with a suspension mount and a windscreen.

Features:

- Professional 1" dual-diaphragm condenser microphone for unsurpassed audio quality
- Ideal as main and support microphone for studio and live applications
- Pressure-gradient transducer with shock-mounted gold-sputtered dual-diaphragm capsule
- Exceptionally flat frequency response and incredible musicality
- Selectable cardioid, omnidirectional or figure-8 bidirectional pickup pattern
- Switchable low-frequency roll-off
- Switchable input attenuation of -10 dB
- Ultra-low-noise transformerless FET input circuitry
- Gold-plated 3-pin XLR output connector
- Rugged construction with satin nickel-plated brass body

Included:
- Heavy-duty suspension mount
- Windscreen
- Transport case zZounds is an authorized dealer of Behringer products.

Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (145 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
"Is there a better mic for the money? I doubt it..."
Sound: Maybe not 9/10 stars across the spectrum of microphones, but for the price...yeah, 9/10. Feature: Came with shock mount and windscreen in a sturdy case. On-mic options are great for setting up according to environment and conditions. Ease of Use: Pie...or cake, depending. Easy as, anyway... Quality: Well made and sturdy for me. Value: For the money...definitely worth it. Several times over... Manufacturer Support: N/A The Wow Factor: Classy, smooth, sophisticated-looking in its shock mount. Only 9/10 because it's not black... Overall: Again, for the money, I don't know of too many comparable mics. These price point microphone wars are doing a lot of good for the pro-sumer and home studio buffs these days; I think the B2 Pro is right there at the top. Also, I encourage anyone reading this review to take note of the "Overall User Ratings" at the top of this list. Look at the ratings for all the various categories EXCEPT "Overall" Those 7 categories average out to 9.25+ at the time of my writing this review. So, why is it that the "Overall" rating for this mic is only 7/10 stars? That makes zero sense, but what does is purchasing this mic if you need a solid, sensitive and adaptable microphone for pro-sumer use.

Thank you. Your vote has been counted. Could you briefly tell us why the review was or was not helpful?

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "A great mic for vocals and acoustics at a great price."
Sound: The sound of this mic is fantastic. I dropped it on a medium shag carpeted floor, and the gentle thud it made will be hard to reproduce in this price range. Seriously, comparing this mic to a MXL V57M (the only other studio mic I own), there is no comparison. The B2 comes through pure and clean, and the noise level? None. Zippo. Feature: I like the features of the mic, the low-freq filter, the attenuator, and the 3 patterns available are nice. The shockmount is pretty much standard, but is a qaulity built mount. The case is very high quality, and when you transport a condenser mic, you need that. Glad to see that Behringer put the extra cost in a well built, sturdy, lightweight aluminum case, with sized foam lining. Ease of Use: I mean it's a mic, right. Easy to use though, the features are selectable from the outside, you can try different combos easily, without having to take a cover off, get out your headband mounted combo magnifying glass/spotlight to change patterns. Quality: Mic is very well made, no loose parts or blems. It has not failed to perform to this point, but I am very careful with the handling of the mic. You just can't throw around condenser mics like they're rag dolls. Will probably last a lifetime, givn the proper care. And if you use it for vocals, get a pop filter or some kind of screen. Condensers do not like moisture. And don't spill beer on it, it won't like that either. Value: I looked around for a good quality studio mic, and read a lot of reviews. From what I read, Behringer is not the defacto studio mic that every recording engineer dreams of, but is one of those sleepers, that once it is tried is found to rank right there with the big guns. For the price (don't you hate that phrase? what the heck does it mean?), you may not find a better value. Oh, you can pay less, especially in the used market, but why do people sell used mics? That's what I thought, too. Manufacturer Support: Haven't had to use it, so that's a good start. The Wow Factor: It is a nice looking mic, not small by any means, but has a healthy, sturdy look and feel. It looks impressive, even if it's not black. A little bit of a throw-back look to the old radio days. Overall: I think I will be satisfied with the mic a long time, although I am sure I will supplement it. If this thing goes on sale, I will definitely buy another.
Style of Music: I'm right handed, left brained (yeah, my brain left a long time ago)
