audio-technica.com (manufacturer) returned HTTP 403 Forbidden for every URL attempted in this read, and B&H, Sweetwater, Adorama, Crutchfield, Sam Ash, Reverb and Walmart were all blocked (403/CAPTCHA) while Newegg returned zero results and the guessed Amazon URL 404'd; guitarcenter.com was the one page that fetched cleanly for this exact model. guitarcenter.com "Audio-Technica ATR2100X-USB Cardioid Dynamic USB/XLR Microphone" (Item #1500000318177) accessed 2026-07-07, re-fetched and re-verified 2026-07-09, confirmed verbatim via its Specs table: Element "Dynamic" (type=dynamic), Polar Pattern "Cardioid" (polar pattern=cardioid), Output Connector "USB-C/XLR" (connectivity=USB-C + XLR), Bit Depth "Up to 24 bit" (bit depth=24), Sample Rate "44.1 kHz/48 kHz/96 kHz/192 kHz" (sample rate (kHz)=192, recording the maximum supported value per the catalog's existing max-value convention), Headphone Jack "3.5 mm TRS (stereo)" (headphone jack=true), Controls "On/off switch; headphone volume control" (no dedicated mute button is present in the enumerated controls, so mute button=false), and Accessories "Stand clamp for 5/8\"-27 threaded stands, tripod desk stand, ..." (mount). Price shown "$79.00" (marked Sold Out). No release year appears anywhere on the page, so release date and specs.release are left blank. source.url points to the fetched Guitar Center retailer page because the Audio-Technica page could not be retrieved, following the catalog's precedent (AT2020USB-X, Blue Yeti X); corroboration is left blank because no second retailer page could be fetched.
