Sanken CUB-01

Sanken CUB-01 Boundary Microphone

The Sanken CUB-01 is a compact boundary microphone featuring a unique square capsule design with cardioid directivity at the front side of the hemisphere. Despite its small size (32.5 mm diameter, 14 mm height, 45 g), it delivers a rich, full-bodied sound usually associated with larger microphones. Its discreet form factor makes it easy to conceal and position in a wide variety of situations, from film and TV production to conference tables and automotive interiors.
