Marantz Professional MPM-1000

The Marantz Professional MPM-1000 is a high-quality condenser microphone designed for studio recording, podcasting, and voice-over work. While the Marantz brand has a long and storied history dating back to its founding in the United States in 1953 by Saul Marantz, the 'Marantz Professional' line specifically targets the pro-audio and studio markets.

The production of these microphones primarily takes place in China to leverage specialized manufacturing hubs for consumer electronics. Ownership of the brand has changed hands several times over the decades; currently, Marantz Professional is a brand under the inMusic Brands family. This parent company, based in the United States, manages a diverse portfolio of audio technology brands, ensuring that the legacy of high-fidelity sound remains integrated with modern manufacturing processes.
