I/O: XLR output
Notable use: Versatile studio pencil condenser; replaces older NT5
Notes: Covers brief's 'NT5/NT55' line item; NT5 itself appears superseded by NT55 with interchangeable capsules (NT45-C/NT45-O), so only NT55 listed to avoid duplicate/cap. Price varies widely by retailer (MSRP ~$499, street ~$369); not confirmed on rode.com, left blank.
