Audix FireBall
Cardioid Dynamic Microphone
The Audix FireBall is a compact handheld dynamic mic designed for harmonica and beatbox. Like Audix’ D-series mics, it uses Audix’ VLM (Very Low Mass) moving-coil cartridge.
The published frequency-response graph shows a rolled-off low end below 100Hz, and a +5dB presence boost from 2kHz to 15kHz. According to Audix, this measurement was taken at 2 inches, which is the intended working distance for the microphone.
The mic body is made of aluminum, with a unique 3-stage marble anodized finish. The grille is made of steel mesh.
For use with guitar amplifiers, the T50k Impedance matching transformer is recommended.

The original FireBall design began as a modified vocal microphone, but with input from some of the most well-respected and successful harmonica players today, the Fireball evolved into a stunning example of a product where form follows function.
