Manufacturer's Description for Samson CL5 Handheld Condenser Microphone (with Case)

The CL5 is a studio condenser in a handheld package, making it an ideal selection for critical miking of vocals and instruments. With high SPL handling capabilities, this microphone's response is so detailed and open, it captures every nuance of a performance, like quiet acoustic passages, subtle breaths by a vocalist and of course, full-throated vocals in any style.

Sensitivity, extended response and accuracy make the CL5 microphone an elegant selection for performers and a logical choice for engineers. The CL5 features a 12.7mm gold-sputtered capsule with a 3-micron tensioned diaphragm working with advanced head amp electronics to faithfully reproduce any sound source.

Our careful implementation of advanced design and manufacturing technology results in an outstanding microphone with superb audio clarity, linear response and exceptional high frequency reproduction.

The CL5 is a pressure gradient, true condenser with a super-cardioid pickup pattern and extended linear frequency response that operates on 48-volt phantom power. It includes a dual stage windscreen and comes in a durable carry case. The CL5 is also available in both nickel and black finishes. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Samson products.

Read 1 Samson CL5 Handheld Condenser Microphone (with Case) Review

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Don't judge a Mic by the price."

Sound: I have been doing live sound for over 20 years. i was wanting to buy a few Neumann KMS105n mics just to have a very high end and reputable brand for live recordings. when i saw a photo of the CL5 i thought it was the Neumann until i investigated further. I compared the specs for both mics side by side. They were so close on paper that i decided to give the a shot. I am very pleased. I put them side by side with my EV RE510, and my RODE M2 condenser. The Samson had better sound quality and better monitor feedback rejection than either of them . They have become my #1 vocal mics. I had Gospel recording artist Walter Johnson do a test with them at my church. I put them up against Shure Beta 58&87, EV767, Sennheiser 835 and AKG C5. He chose the Samson hands down. Overall: I will give another review in about 6months after it has been road tested. right now it it has not past the time test.
