Hello guys!
I'm from the small country of Bulgaria and I need help from experts like you with identifying 2 vintage tube microphones that I've acquired recently.
Bought them cheap for $13 each. I believe these are Tesla made since there was a 3rd different microphone in the lot and its box has the same ornaments and finish as the ones I am interested about. I've disassembled both and they both have 5703WA miniature tube inside.
I am attaching pictures below.
Thanks in advance!

Did you get a power supply with them?

Unfortunately not. But the price was far too good to pass it.

Would you call these a Large Diaphragm or a small?

I am leaning more towards a small one.

When I first saw it I thought Theile. But I don't find anything on any of their historic sites.
What language is printed on the boards or any of the electrical parts? The tube is not rare nor is it's use in a mic.
Good luck!

I will check again, but I did't saw any boards inside when I had I open. Only couple of capacitors and resistors.

You might check out a site called oldmics.pl They may be able to tell you what they are. Perhaps even get you a line on power supplies.
Let us know!
I'll give them a line now. I've also asked the guys behind http:

Well now. Here ya go. Here's a great link to vintage mics everyone should have : coutant.org
Within their pages is a large set of links to various collections, engineers, manufacturers etc. And in these links I found THIS
Czechoslovakian Microphone Museum Inside of this I found Tesla AMC 500 and the power supply. Now this mic is the transistor version of those tube mics. There's another called the Tesla AMC 412 which is a tube mic very similar.
This is the page you mentioned. And I don't know if you had been able to see the mics and the paper work on them.
Both of these examples are just a little off but definitely the parentage of your mics.
