Audio file of male vocals recorded roughly 6″ in front of a single Genelec speaker in the Rosza 215 Studio. During the recording, the microphone was turned 360 degrees slowly to get a sense of the on-axis and off-axis sound that this microphone collects. It holds at 0 and 180 degrees to hear the difference between completely on axis to completely off axis.
