AE4100

Audio-Technica AE4100 – High-presence cardioid dynamic stage microphone

The Audio-Technica AE4100 is a high-performance cardioid dynamic microphone specifically designed for stage use. Known for its cutting presence in the mix, it enhances articulation and transient detail, delivering a clear and impactful vocal projection.

With its high output level and excellent isolation, it naturally excels in loud environments. Its advanced internal shock isolation system and integrated pop filter dramatically reduce handling noise and plosives. Equipped with a multi-layer grille (polyurethane foam + hardened steel + fine mesh), it ensures optimal capsule protection even in demanding live conditions.

Its precision Japanese engineering incorporates a dual acoustic chamber that guarantees stable and consistent performance in any situation, whether using the wired AE4100 or the wireless AEW-T4100a version. Rugged, reliable, and designed for touring, the AE4100 comes with a 15-year manufacturer warranty.
