A must-have for guitarists and brass players alike, the Sontronics Delta 2 is the successor to the original Delta, which was our first ever ribbon mic designed specifically to handle high-SPL sources such as guitar amps, sax and brass.

Perfect for studio as well as live use, the phantom-powered Delta 2 delivers all the intimate tone and subtlety you’d expect from a ribbon microphone while being rugged enough to capture powerful signals without overloading or clipping.

A favourite with many guitarists and instrumentalists – from Radiohead’s Ed O’Brien to the brass players of the London Metropolitan Orchestra – Delta 2 will guarantee amazing results, whether you’re in the studio or on the road.

Hand-built in the UK, the Delta 2 is crafted using our own proprietary circuit that boasts premium-grade components, including a custom-wound transformer made to our own design.

Ours are the only ribbon mics in the world to also feature RFI filters in the circuit to prevent radio frequency interference entering the signal, making our mics perfectly suited to live use.

The same care has been taken with the build, right down to the gauge of British stainless steel mesh used for the grille, the military-spec anodised finish of the aluminium side pieces and the precision-engineered shockmount.

With Delta 2 you will see and feel the quality as well as hear it!
