Detail 01
Boundary design
Sits against the surface and uses it as part of the pickup, avoiding the phase cancellation a raised mic gets.

AudixADX60 Boundary Microphone
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A pre-polarized condenser boundary mic that lies flat on a surface. For conference tables, lecterns, and stage floors where a mic stand is in the way.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Boardroom and conference table pickup with mics kept out of sight
- Stage floor coverage for theater and musical productions
- Lecterns and podiums where a stand blocks sightlines
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Handheld or stand-mounted vocal work — it needs a flat surface
- Deep bass sources; response stops at 50 Hz
- Mixers or interfaces without phantom power
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Cardioid pattern
Aims into the room in front of it rather than picking up the whole table equally.
Detail 03
50Hz–18kHz response
Low end rolls off below speech range, so HVAC rumble and stage thumps come through less.
Detail 04
7.2 mV/Pa sensitivity
Moderate output. Expect to run more preamp gain than a large-diaphragm studio condenser needs.
Detail 05
Pre-polarized condenser element
The capsule holds its own charge, so supplied power runs the electronics rather than the diaphragm.
Detail 06
250 ohm output
Low impedance, so long balanced runs back to a rack mixer hold up fine.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Needs phantom power from your mixer or interface to operate.
- 02The surface it sits on shapes the sound — larger and harder reads brighter.
- 03Plan an XLR run long enough to reach the mixer discreetly.
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does a boundary mic have to sit on a table?
Yes. It's built to lie against a flat surface and work with it. Held in the air or on a stand, it loses the response it's designed around.
02Does the ADX60 need phantom power?
Yes. It's a condenser, so it needs phantom power from a mixer or audio interface. It won't pass signal without it.
03Can I use it inside a piano?
It'll work on the soundboard or under the lid, though the 50 Hz low limit means less weight in the bottom octaves than a full-range mic.
04How is this different from a normal cardioid mic?
It sits flush against a surface instead of above it, so reflections off that surface reinforce the signal rather than causing comb filtering.
