Precision Ribbon Design
The Sontronics DELTA 2 is a purpose-built ribbon microphone designed to capture high-energy sound sources with accuracy and musical warmth. Featuring a classic figure-of-eight polar pattern and a wide 20Hz–15kHz frequency response, it delivers natural tone with excellent detail. Its ribbon technology provides a smooth, intimate character while maintaining clarity even at high volumes. With low impedance, ultra-low self-noise, and a high 140dB SPL handling capacity, the DELTA 2 ensures distortion-free performance. Hand-built and tuned in the UK, it reflects precision engineering meant for professional recording and demanding live environments.
High SPL Capability
Specifically engineered for loud instruments, the DELTA 2 excels at recording guitar amplifiers, brass, and saxophones without clipping or overload. Its ability to handle extreme sound pressure levels makes it ideal for close-miking powerful sources while retaining tonal balance. Phantom power operation enhances performance consistency and versatility across studio and stage setups. Whether capturing aggressive guitar tones or bold brass sections, the DELTA 2 maintains definition and warmth. This makes it a reliable choice for musicians and engineers who need confidence when working with high-output instruments in challenging acoustic conditions.
