Audix OM5 AUDIX OM5 Leaflet

OM5

Designed, assembled and tested by Audix in the USA, the OM5 is 

a dynamic vocal microphone used for stage, studio and broadcast 

applications. The OM5 is known for its clarity, resistance to feedback 

and ability to handle SPL (Sound Pressure Levels) in excess of 144 

dB without distortion.   

The OM5 is characterized with an extremely tight and uniformly 

controlled hypercardioid polar pattern which helps to isolate the vocals 

from the rest of the instruments on stage. With a wide frequency 

range of 48 Hz - 19 kHz, the OM5 employs a VLM™ (Very Low Mass) 

diaphragm for natural response, accurate sound reproduction and 

exceptional transient response. 

The OM5 is naturally attenuated at 120 Hz to reduce boominess and 

handling noise. The mid-range is tailored for presence allowing the 

vocalist to be more easily heard in the mains as well as the monitors. 

The OM5 is comfortable to hold, durable and manufactured with high 

standards and tight tolerances.  

The OM5 includes a precision die cast zinc alloy body, black E-coat 

finish, laser etched model and serial number, steel mesh grill, 

Switchcraft® or Audix XLR connector and heavy duty nylon clip.
