Description: Hello and welcome to The House of Chrome. You are looking at a rarer & excellent sounding 1980's / 90' era Audio Technica Pro 6 model dynamic cardioid microphone based on the ATM63 microphone that has very strong output and set at Low Z making this a good choice for singing and broadcasting purposes. It comes with a mic clip & 8 foot cable. This is a high quality Audio Technica product an easily on par with any fine dynamic cardioid mic of that era and even of today. A very sleek and aggressive looking mic. Made in Japan and built to last. I'm not sure why Audio Technica changed the model number but I think the Pro 6 was was the final example of this fantastic and little known mic. It's been out of circulation for many years now so not too many people know of this gem. These Japanese mics were some of the best made mics of that era. Excellent components and incredible quality control. Even Electro Voice had several of their models made in Japan back in the 1980's and 90's. This Pro 6 has an attractive dark black / grey paint scheme on an all metal body and is quite rugged. This mic has a bit of weight so it despite only being 6 inches long X 1 inch wide. The same overall dimensions as The Shure SM-57 model mic and arguably better sounding. Built like a tank. I don't have a ton of experience with these Audio Technica mics but I can tell you the sound is quality and has a warm, smooth tone. Just very rich with a great frequency response. This mic will absolutely impress you. The front inner pop filter is new as the old one was falling apart. You can use a larger foam exterior pop filter if you want for improved sound but the new one is just fine and the mic on it's own is more than enough. The mic has exceptional uni-directional characteristics as well picking up only what's directly in front of it due to it being a cardioid type. Not sure of the exact date on this mic but I'm thinking late 1980's or early 90's. This was an expensive mic when originally sold. As you can see there is very lite wear on the painted finish of this mic. Free of any deep scratches, dents or fractures. The front screen is metal and free of any dents, odors or tarnish. The Audio Technica label shows no wear and completely legible. Please let the pictures be your guide. The mic clip is included and grips this mic very well allowing you to hang the mic upside down if needed. The mic clip shows no wear and will screw onto any stand you have. The mic comes with a quality 8 foot Audio Technica cable that works very well for this mic and comes in the same black color scheme. It's in excellent condition being soft and pliable. Free of damage and has the standard male & female XLR end connectors for use with most audio equipment. A great package deal on a great vintage mic considering the asking price. You'll get many good decades out of this one. Overall I would rate this mic an easy 8 + on a scale of 1 - 10 in the cosmetic department.
