Unlike most X/Y stereo microphones where the capsules form a 90° stereo image, the BP4025 has ingenious arrangement of its large capsules for stereo more "realistic" 120° image. The two capsules are mounted back-to-back on the same electronic circuit.
This is a unique configuration of coincident large diaphragm capsules for impeccable sound quality and exceptionally low noise level. The audio reproduction - thanks to the excellent channel separation - is natural and powerful to give the listener the impression of being there when the audio was recorded.

“UNIQUE CONFIGURATION”
The BP4025 is equipped with large membrane coincident capsules. Mounted in parallel to the microphone head, the shared electronic circuit guarantees that the recordings of the two membranes are processed at exactly the same time from the same source, for the perfect stereo image.
“NATURAL SOUNDING”
Thanks to the excellent channel separation on the BP4025, the audio reproduction is natural and powerful to give the listener the impression of being there when the audio was recorded.
