Sontronics is a British microphone manufacturer founded in 2004 by Trevor Coley, with design and production based in Poole, Dorset on the south coast of England. The company launched its first range of condenser microphones at NAMM in January 2005, and several of those early models — including the Orpheus, STC-1 and STC-2 — remain staples of the lineup.

The brand's catalogue spans large-diaphragm condensers (Orpheus, Aria, Helios), valve mics (Mercury, Aria, Corona), ribbon mics (Sigma, Delta, Apollo), and dynamics (STC-80, Solo, Halo). Sontronics has also built out a line aimed at broadcasters and podcasters, including the Podcast Pro, along with accessories such as the ST-POP popshield and Elevate desktop stand. Mics are hand-built in the UK and carry a lifetime manufacturer warranty.

Sontronics has developed a reputation for combining classic styling with modern engineering at accessible price points, and has worked with producers including Flood and Paul Epworth, as well as Abbey Road Studios.

Sontronics has 25 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Condenser Microphones, Dynamic Microphones, and Ribbon Microphones. Their gear is featured by 21 artists, with the strongest followings in Rock, Pop, and Folk, World, & Country. Notable users include Flood, Peter Holmström, and Pete Parada. Most Sontronics products fall in the mid-tier range — professional-grade without flagship pricing.
