Vintage tube microphone in 1-to-1 replica of the original. Golden Age Project ELA M 251E Tube Microphone Overview: Carefully developed 1:1 replica of the Telefunken ELA M 251E Silky, high-resolution, musical sound with all the typical tube sound characteristics Suitable for all signal types and rooms - whether vocals, Drum overheads, guitar amps, ambient microphones Gives the source material brilliance, assertiveness and airiness thanks to its excellent, shimmering treble image All mechanical parts, connectors, pinout, power supply and electronics are identical and compatible with the original CK12 condenser capsule derived from the GA K251 - matches the original acoustically, electrically and optically Point-to-point wired electronics in plug-in plastic housing 1:1 replica polarity switch with silver-plated individual parts Highly selected components: EHX tube, silver-plated Teflon cable and connectors, +/-0.5dB capsule tolerance Therefore the greatest possible identity with the original from the early 60s incl. power supply, 7-pin cable, cable with microphone holder, wooden case and spider Reverse engineering at its best After 3 years of development, Golden Age Project presents the ELA M 251E large diaphragm tube microphone, a unique replica of the important Telefunken microphone model of the same name from the 1960s. From the CK12 microphone capsule to the smallest screw and the last plastic part, the engineers at Golden Age Project have reproduced every optical, acoustic and technical detail of the original 1:1. The CK12 capsule was developed from the GAP K251 capsule in countless listening sessions with several historic ELA M 251Es and corresponds 100% to the original CK12 in terms of frequency response and sensitivity, as it was manufactured by AKG in Vienna in the 1960s. Due to the highest modern production standards, the capsules could be tolerated to +/-0.5 dB and the front and rear of the individual capsules to +/-0.2 dB The power supply, which is housed in a separate power supply unit, is naturally built entirely according to the specifications of the old ELA M 251E and is also fully compatible with it, both in terms of the electrical parameters and the pin assignment of the cable and the connectors. Golden Age Project has even painstakingly reproduced the mechanical design of the directional switch and the innovative plastic container, which makes the electronics interchangeable as a whole. This ensures that the microphone behaves exactly like the original, both electronically and acoustically. An enrichment for every production High-quality tube microphones such as the ELA M 251E are preferred by almost all sound engineers for the most important tracks in their productions. They add body and sparkle to female and male vocals and help to make the voice in the Mix big and close. They provide a vividly reproduced kit with rich overtones and a lot of top end in drum recordings and are also ideal for miking the recording room in the far...
