The engineering of this particular piece of cutting-edge audio technology asked for a forward-thinking approach toward capsule and circuit design. As a result, a way of experiencing sound at infinite depth and absolute precision came to life; its name, the Lewitt LCT 540 S. Get involved with tone and sound in ways unheard and bring your recordings to perfection by capturing all the fine-grained characteristics that constitute each moment of your performance. Rediscover your instrument and voice on a whole new level of musical detail.

Lewitt's unique approach toward electronics and capsule design makes the microphone better than human hearing. With the LCT 540 S, a new benchmark was set in terms of capturing fine-grained details of your recording source. It allows you to record details of your voice and instruments that usually wouldn’t even be audible. Makes every detail count.

With its cutting-edge circuit and capsule design, the LCT 540 S features an impressive dynamic range of 132dB to capture everything from loud to subtle. You won’t hear the self-noise of the mic even after heavily compressing the signal. Material recorded with the LCT 540 S is fit for extreme processing.

The human hearing threshold is very frequency-dependent. It is less sensitive toward low and very high frequencies and most sensitive around 2–5kHz. With Lewitt's specific and unique approach toward circuit and capsule design, they were able to realize self-noise that'll stay below the threshold of hearing across the entire frequency spectrum.

To measure the self-noise of the LCT 540 S, Lewitt built a unique device. It's ten times more massive than conventional ones, weighing over 9,900 lb. in total. This amount of mass will dampen frequencies up to a 1/10,000th of their sound pressure. The frequency range from 20Hz to 20kHz is dampened by 60dB, up to 80dB on the higher frequencies.

Perfect match technology
Every single LCT 540 S undergoes a series of measurements followed by adjustment of the polarization voltage to achieve the same sensitivity in every LCT 540 S ever produced. This way, you can form a pair when you buy another one later on.
