Icon Cocoon

The microphones of the Space series by Icon combine clarity and warmth in a vintage sound with a bold, intergalactic design. The Cocoon large-diaphragm condenser microphone features a true electrostatic Golden-Drop transducer in its space-ready capsule architecture. The thin, ultra-light diaphragm is made of pure 999 gold. This innovative technology allows the diaphragm to move with laser-sharp precision, enhancing intelligibility while reducing coloration and distortion.

The advanced shock mount technology neutralizes unnecessary vibrations to preserve signal integrity and ensure an optimal recording experience. The discrete Class A electronics are handcrafted in Latvia, using only the highest quality components to guarantee peak performance, excellent durability, and extremely low self-noise.

Professional, handcrafted large-diaphragm capsule for a full, open sound and unparalleled audio quality. Ideal as a main and support microphone for most recording situations. Pressure gradient transducer with shock-mounted capsule. Operates with external phantom power in the range of 36 to 52 volts. Highly stable, elastic mount and aluminum transport case included. Extremely robust construction with a metal housing. High-quality components and a particularly stable design ensure a long lifespan.
