Lewitt LCT 440 Pure Large-Diaphragm Condenser Microphone with Shock Mount - Used
The LCT 440 Pure is Lewitt's stripped-down studio condenser — no pads, no filters, no polar pattern switching, just a 1" true condenser capsule with a 3-micron gold-sputtered Mylar diaphragm doing exactly what it was designed to do. Lewitt built the 440 Pure around the same capsule and circuit topology found in their top-shelf LCT models, making it one of the more over-specified microphones at its price point. Fixed cardioid polar pattern with effective rear rejection, 7dB(A) self-noise, 140dB max SPL, and 133dB dynamic range cover an unusually wide range of recording applications — from quiet acoustic sources to loud guitar cabs and drums — without switching anything or reaching for a pad. The zinc die-cast housing keeps it solid and road-worthy. Requires 48V phantom power. Designed and engineered in Austria.
This one is in Very Good condition with no marks or scratches to the mic body or headbasket. Functions normally. Lewitt shock mount and windscreen included.
