Hi all
I'm curious to know how the Microtech Gefell mics with the M7 capsule stack up against their revered counterparts from the past.

I've rarely come across a reference to the UM92.1. How does this stack up against the M49 and U47?

hi guys, i've been reading a lot about companies that do expensive remakes of the old classic mics (U47, C12, ELAM 251 etc), but unfortunately the majority of the info i can find comes from the companies own web sites or web sites that sell the brands. obviously not the least biased information. i've been checking out designs by wagner, korby and soundelux.

Anyone familiar with dbx A1's? I have an opportunity to buy a pair of these and I'm planning on reselling.The controller box is not with the speakers(I believe the controller is simply a "tuned" high-low filter and could probably be easily reproduced).

I can't find much info on them,they must not have made/sold many.But what I have found says they are the ultimate in speakers.

hi,
I need some help with schematics for two vintage compressors
1-RCA BA-25a
2-RCA ba-43 / RCA ba-45

the ba-25 is a 6386 vari-mu compressor. (I need a 6386 tube too)
the ba45/43's work as a pair. one is a compressor the other is aprogram amp.

I have searched the web to no avail. I hope someone here can help me.
thanks

Hello,

First post from a long time lurker here..

Preamps: (what else?)

After years of boutique handwired guitar amps that were clones of vintage Marshall and Fender guitar amps, I ended up getting. . . vintage 60's Marshalls and Fenders.

Is there a book/website that meticulously covers vintage pro audio equipment (analogous to a history of marshall amplifiers book, or ampwares - the fender amp website - specifications, materials, transformers, etc.) BUT for mic preamps, compressors, eq's, consoles, analog tape machines, etc.

I cant seem to post a photo but if you look on the inside cover of coltranes a love supreme there are 2 right over elvins drums.
They look like Neumann small diapragm condensers with a funny
globe ball basket on the ends ( like a big ball)
Any info is greatly appreciated, i.e. Make model, condenser?, transformer? tube?
Thank you[/img]

I've acquired a RCA 44 Jr. for my little home studio 8)
now what do I plug this baby into to best compliment.

I sort of want to be versatile, but it's a nitch type of item,
so I'd prefer to matched to the era and style

this mic was made in 1940
...what where they plugging it into then?
