Neumann M 147 Tube Condenser Mic - Secondhand

Full Description

Maximum appeal

One aspect that makes the M 147 so appealing is its high level of sensitivity. Coming in at 20mV/Pa, you'll be free to capture every last nuance of any sound. You'll be forgiven for forgetting the Tube Condenser isn't a stereo microphone thanks to its highly refined spatial characteristics. Recording with this microphone is practically cheating. You'll find that with this microphone in your locker making sounds translate from the room to the speakers will feel like an almost effortless endeavour.

Polar pattern perfection

Thanks to its cardioid polar pattern, the M 147 is perfect for both complex studio recordings and live sound. Equally as comfortable in front of an orchestra as it is a guitar cabinet, the Tube Condenser delivers a highly focused sound with incredible off-axis rejection of undesirable noise and ambience.

Finest components

Like the M 149, the M147 boasts the exact same triode vacuum tube. This combined with contemporary circuitry allows you to make the most of the tubes' unique transfer characteristics. All processed audio signals from the capsule will be sent straight to the M147's output, free from undesirable distortion or colouration. Thanks to the inclusion of a high-output voltage, you'll be free to connect microphone cables up to 300m in length without losing any sound quality.
