PICKUP THE SOUND YOU WANT

The SGM-250H is ideal for boom-pole applications, and a great tool for recording sound in an environment with high levels of background noise.

With a focused hypercardioid pickup pattern, the SGM-250H can help you optimize your recordings by producing a better signal-to-noise ratio and thereby helping you capture more articulate, intelligible dialogue.

MITIGATE NOISE WITH LOW-CUT FILTER

An extra tool for combatting low-frequency noise, when engaged the switchable low-cut filter will roll-off frequency response below 75 Hz at the rate of 3 dB per octave.  

PROUDLY HANDCRAFTED IN JAPAN

Azden backs this craftsmanship with an incredible 10 Year Warranty, so you may shop with confidence that this microphone is built to last for years to come.

AVAILABLE CUSTOM FURRY WINDSHIELD

Azden provides two custom options for wind protection on the SGM-250H. The SWS-100 has a dense foam core and a furry outer lining for maximum buffering, while the SWS-H (coming soon) is a custom furry cover that slips over the existing foam windshield for a more affordable option.
