LCT 540 S

“Overall its technical ability is sublime; it sounds warm, clear (not yet clinical), smooth and dynamic. I would look forward to further using a pair for a live classical recording - lessening the need for noise reduction tools in the mix stage. Thank you to LEWITT for pushing innovations and setting new benchmarks for microphone manufacturing.”

Ross Simpson, Audio Media International

“This cardioid condenser shows its quality right away, sitting effortlessly next to a mic more than twice its price across a range of sources. For vocal work it ticks all the boxes, possessing great clarity along with an easily worked proximity buildup, a smooth high end and all the low-end richness you need for voiceovers or in-your-face breathy vocals. The condenser mic HF lift is subtle and free from phasey peaks, keeping sibilance natural and easily controlled.”

“It’s not too crisp, has zero muddiness, and is best described as detailed, full, and musically honest. [...] Also, due to its clean nature, the LCT 540 S makes not only an incredibly detailed vocal mic, but also a great closeup/intimate mic on the quietest of sources.”

Paul Vnuk Jr., Recording Magazine

“Given that it is a mid-priced mic with a somewhat lower price tag than I expected from its performance, the LCT 540 SUBZERO represents extremely good value and is capable of taking on a wide range of recording tasks.”

Paul White, Sound on Sound

“I found the LEWITT LCT 540 S great value for the money and a worthwhile microphone for any source. It compared favorable to most of the transistorized, LDC microphones I put up against it.”
