Microphone History:

Now specialising in the distribution and installation of audio systems in churches and cathedrals across Europe, Strässer was originally founded in Stuttgart as a music store in 1906. Later, it turned its focus to PA systems and distributed OEM microphones such as this M200 model, which is essentially a rebadged Beyer M160 with a large Tuchel connector.
