Sennheiser Vintage Microphone Models

Sennheiser Vintage Microphone Model List

This is a list of all Sennheiser microphones with a production start date before 1986 that I am aware of. Why 1986? That is when Sennheiser came out with the symmetrical condenser capsule and subsequently the MKH20, MKH40, etc. series of mics. All condenser capsules before that were asymmetrical. It is as good a cut off date as any.

The "principal" models are the lines in white. The versions within each model are the lines in blue. The white title row is for the white lines, the blue title row is for the blue lines.

This information is based on various Sennheiser catalogs. Since I don't have access to every Sennheiser catalog ever printed, there will be gaps in this information. One way that this is obvious is in the dates, which are often listed as either a range (~), before (<) or after (>).
