Beyerdynamic M 160 is a legendary dual-ribbon dynamic microphone that has earned its reputation as one of the finest ribbon microphones ever made. Handcrafted in Germany, the M 160 combines artisanal precision with unique technical innovation, offering a warm, detailed, and natural sound that has shaped countless hit records. Its tight hypercardioid polar pattern — exceptionally rare among ribbon microphones — delivers outstanding directionality and separation.

The M 160 excels at softening harsh sources while maintaining clarity and presence, making it a top choice for electric guitar amplifiers, brass instruments, drums, and string sections. Its fast transient response, achieved through an ultra-light dual-ribbon element, ensures accurate reproduction of attack and dynamics, ideal for modern studio and live applications.

With a frequency response of 40 Hz – 18 kHz, the M 160 captures every nuance, from tight lows and warm mids to silky highs. Despite its ribbon design, it can handle high SPLs effortlessly, making it perfect for both studio and stage. In combination with the M 130 (figure-8 pattern), it can be used for M/S stereo recording. Each microphone is individually tested and supplied with a unique frequency response printout, reflecting its handcrafted precision and impeccable quality.

Compact, durable, and lightweight, the M 160 redefines what a ribbon microphone can do — offering vintage warmth with modern reliability.
