Gearank Recommendation

The AE6100 first appeared on our recommended list for Dynamic Microphones from July 2018 until June 2020.

It was also on our list for Live Vocal Mics from November 2018 until April 2020.

To see which dynamic mics are currently on our recommended list, take a look at our guide to The Best Dynamic Microphones.

Overview

While there's no replacing a real pop-filter in the studio, there are stage mics that come with a pop-filter built inside them.

The main strength of the Audio-Technica AE6100 is its built-in open-cell foam pop-filter which helps improve overall sound by reducing background noise and vocal plosives.

Its built-in open-cell foam pop-filter complements the AE6100's hypercardioid polar pattern and anti-shock engineering that results in improved overall clarity, quiet operation, and feedback resistance.

This works together with its hypercardioid polar pattern and dynamic capsule, making this a good mic on stage, of which many user reports attest to.

With its built-in pop-up filter and stage ready features, the Audio-Technica AE6100 is well worth your consideration.
