connect with your audience like never before.

environments where clarity and precision are key. Whether capturing audience ambiance for in-

ear monitoring, dialogue on set, or broadcasting from a noisy location, this premium shotgun 

microphone ensures every detail is recorded with stunning accuracy and minimal background 

noise. Its tight Polar Pattern delivers superior gain-before-feedback while rejecting unwanted 

noise. At the heart of the sE6160 is its newly developed, handcrafted true condenser capsule, 

featuring ultra-precision parts and a gold-sputtered diaphragm to guarantee maximum 

reliability and stunning sound quality. Each capsule is individually handcrafted and meticulously 

tuned at sE’s factory, ensuring peak performance. This attention to detail translates into

journalists alike. Its switchable Pre-Attenuation Pad expands the dynamic range for loud sound 

sources whereas the switchable Low-Cut Filter effectively reduces rumble, footfall noise, and 

excessive bass. The sE6160 weighs half of comparable microphones, making it a great choice 

perfect for boom operators and mobile recording while its premium metal housing and 

roadworthy die-cast construction guarantee long-lasting durability. 

 

Every sE6160 microphone is handcrafted and individually tuned to meet the highest standards 

of professional audio performance. Designed to withstand the rigors of live production while 

maintaining a sleek, modern aesthetic, the sE6160 is as visually impressive as it is sonically 

superior. Capture sound the way it was meant to be heard. Whether you’re performing on stage,

About Manufacturer

The sE Electronics story begins withMr Siwei Zou, a hugely talented classical musician from Shanghai who won a top place at the Shanghai Conservatory and went on to become a highly successful player, conductor and composer. He worked closely with the Shanghai Opera and the Shanghai Philharmonic Orchestra as both conductor and recording artist,with several hugely successful classical hit recordings to his name. In 1987 he was invited by California Sonoma State University as a visiting Scholar to serve on the faculty. He continued to teach counterpoint and orchestration as a faculty member in the Music Department at the University. He also studied recording technology under Grammy Awards nominee Professor Warren Dennis Kahn. The sE commitment to exceptional quality can be directly attributed to the company founder Mr. Zou, who in his distinguished career has developed an ingrained instinct and desire for perfection. Wishing to bring this drive for artistic and creative perfection to bear in a tangible way, Siwei started his own microphone manufacturing company. Working with a team of his own top engineers, and experts in the field of electrical engineering at Shanghai University, Siwei designed, built and tested a whole range of new and innovative products. Shunning the common practise of western manufacturers re-branding cheap Chinese microphones, Siwei designed and built his own range of microphones which are now manufactured in his state-of-the-art facility in Shanghai., the ultra-modern face of new China. sE Electronics make only their own products, which means dedication to detail in every aspect of performance and styling without compromise. All sE mic capsules are entirely built by hand. Even the chassis and flight cases are built in-house. In fact when you own an sE microphone you can be confident that every aspect of both the mic and its accessories has had the same unrivalled level of care and passion right throughout its design and manufacture. Even to the level that every single microphone that leaves the facility has undergone a personal listening test rather than simply being put through a machine - and it shows. Launched in Europe in 2003, sE Electronics condenser mics are now the number one brand in the UK and the fastest growing microphone brand in Europe. The brand, in its short history, has already won almost every major European award possible for excellence including the Future Publishing Readers Poll ýMic of the Yearý Award. Although sE is a new line to the USA in 2004, both the sE Gemini and Icis have already won the coveted ýMix Certified Hitý Award and the range is fast finding the same unanimous acclaim and passionate following that it has in Europe. sE is so confident youýll be able to really hear the difference, that they offer a completely free loan service for all of their products! The range includes three superbly tailored ýpencilý instrument mics, two large diaphragm solid-state condensers, two incredible performance tube mics, and the worldýs first dual tube, transformerless, studio mic in the form of the award-winning Gemini.
