Citronic 173.645UK Black Studio Microphone brings professional-quality vocal capture to home studios and streaming setups with its compact, all-in-one design.

This wired studio microphone features a cardioid pickup pattern that focuses on the sound source in front of the capsule while reducing ambient room noise, making it ideal for podcasting, streaming and vocal recording. Its sensitivity is rated at -48 dB and the frequency response spans 30–18,000 Hz, delivering clear low end and crisp highs suitable for voice and many instruments.

The microphone achieves a maximum sound pressure level of 132 dB (measured at 1 kHz) and maintains low distortion with a total harmonic distortion (THD) of around 1%, which preserves audio clarity even at louder sources.

Included in the box you'll find a spider shock mount holder, a worktop clamp, an articulated arm mount, a foam pop filter, a gooseneck pop shield and a 1.5 m USB B-to-A lead. These accessories reduce handling noise, provide flexible positioning and minimize plosives for more professional recordings from the first session.

This microphone is especially useful for content creators who need a straightforward setup: podcasters, voice-over artists, streamers, home recording enthusiasts and teachers running online lessons will find it convenient and effective. Its cardioid pattern and included accessories make it a reliable choice for isolating vocals in treated or untreated rooms.
