Audio-Technica U841A Omnidirectional Boundary Microphone

The Audio-Technica U841A is an omnidirectional condenser boundary microphone designed for versatile audio capture in conference rooms, lecture halls, and performance spaces. Operating with a frequency response of 30 to 20,000 Hz, it delivers clear sound via phantom power or battery. Procure.ae supplies this professional audio equipment across the UAE.

The Audio-Technica U841A captures audio using an omnidirectional polar pattern in a hemisphere above the mounting surface, ensuring even coverage. It features a frequency response of 30 to 20,000 Hz and includes a low-frequency roll-off switch at 80 Hz providing 18 dB/octave attenuation for noise reduction. Phantom sensitivity measures -39 dB (11.2 mV) re 1V at 1 Pa, while battery sensitivity is -40 dB (10.0 mV). It supports phantom power requirements of 11-52V DC with typical current of 2 mA or uses a 1.5V AA/UM3 battery for up to 1200 hours of operation.

This microphone connects via a permanently attached cable with a diameter of 3.2 mm and length of 7.6 m, terminating in a TA3F-type connector that adapts to a 3-pin XLRM output. The compact body measures Ø 65.0 x h 15.1 mm, with overall dimensions of 108.0 x 84.0 x 23.0 mm, weighing only 78 g. It includes an AT8531 power module, a battery, and a soft protective pouch for transport.

Questions

Can’t find your answer? Ask on WhatsApp

Does the U841A support phantom power?
Yes, the microphone supports phantom power with requirements of 11-52V DC and a typical current draw of 2 mA. This allows it to operate without batteries when connected to compatible mixing consoles or interface preamps.
What is the battery life for this microphone?
The U841A can operate for approximately 1200 hours on a single alkaline AA/UM3 battery. This long-lasting power option ensures extended use in locations where phantom power is not available.
How do I control low-frequency noise?
The microphone features an On-Roll-Off switch that activates a low-frequency roll-off at 80 Hz with a slope of 18 dB/octave. This helps reduce rumble and handling noise during installation or use.
What connectors are included?
The unit comes with a permanently attached cable ending in a TA3F-type connector, which adapts to a standard 3-pin XLRM output. It also includes an AT8531 power module for direct phantom power connection if needed.
