Audix MB8450 Reviews

Audix Doesn't Disappoint!

I First Discovered The Audio M1250 (the Key Component Of The MB8450 MicroBoom System) When I Was Director Of Worship At My Church. They Are Very Sensitive And Run On Phantom Power. Used Properly You Can Achieve An Enhanced Sound That Doesn't Sound Like The Group Is Amplified. I Bought Three Total Mics To Enhance A Different Chorus Which Performs In Many Different Types Of Venues From Inside To Outside And They Never Fail To Do The Job. It Is Vital That You Use A Better Windscreen When Outdoors Than The OEM Version As It Will Pick Up The Wind Noise. WindTech Audio Makes Screens For Just About Every Mic Out There So You'll Be Covered. They Are Pricey At $719 But Well Worth It!
