About Sontronics Microphones
Sontronics Microphones are the brainchild of musician and audio enthusiast Trevor Coley, who founded the brand in 2004 with the goal of producing professional-quality microphones at accessible prices. Garnering a reputation for their distinctive smooth high-frequency roll-off, Sontronics microphones combine innovative design with classic styling, appealing to both professionals and enthusiasts alike.
Launched at the NAMM Show in Los Angeles in 2005, Sontronics debuted with a range of condenser microphones that quickly became best-sellers, including the iconic Orpheus, STC-1, and STC-2. Today, the brand's product line has expanded to include studio condensers, mono and stereo ribbons, valve and dynamic microphones, and popular models like the Podcast Pro. Sontronics also offers essential accessories such as the ST-POP popshield, XLR-USB cable, and Elevate desktop stand.
Designed and developed on the south coast of England, Sontronics microphones are meticulously crafted. New prototypes undergo rigorous beta-testing by top British producers such as Flood and Paul Epworth, as well as engineers at Abbey Road Studios. Many of their high-end microphones are crafted in the UK, featuring proprietary circuits and hand-wound transformers sourced locally. Each microphone undergoes meticulous testing in Dorset before it reaches your studio, ensuring superior quality and reliability.
Sontronics microphones can be found in leading studios, sound stages, radio stations, home studios, educational institutions, and podcasting setups worldwide. Their commitment to quality, innovation, and affordability makes Sontronics microphones a trusted choice for capturing impeccable sound.
