R-10 Overview
The Royer R-10 is a handbuilt passive ribbon microphone that combines classic ribbon warmth with modern durability. Designed for studio and live use, it delivers a natural, full-range sound with an unhyped frequency response from 30 Hz to 15 kHz. Capable of handling extreme sound pressure levels—up to 135 dB at 50 Hz and 160 dB at 1 kHz—the R-10 excels on loud sources while maintaining detail and smoothness. With a standard 3-pin XLR connection and no need for phantom power, it’s a versatile tool for musicians, engineers, and live sound professionals alike.
