Neumann U 67 Tube Condenser Microphone Reissue Nickel
Description
The Neumann U 67 tube condenser microphone reissue is a faithful recreation of the landmark microphone that shaped the sound of the 1960s. Built in Germany to original specifications with premium components, the U 67 reissue delivers the silky smooth character, versatility and premium performance that made the original a studio workhorse for over a decade.
Three Polar Patterns for Maximum Flexibility
With selectable cardioid, omnidirectional and figure-8 polar patterns, the U 67 reissue is ready to capture any source. Move from intimate vocals to distant room mics with the turn of a dial. The cardioid setting is perfect for focused recording of single instruments or vocals. Omnidirectional picks up sound evenly from all directions, ideal for ambient room mics and the figure-8 can record two sound sources, one on each side of the mic.
Premium Components Meticulously Reproduced
Neumann has painstakingly recreated the U 67 using archived documentation and new-old stock components. The K 67 capsule, BV 12 output transformer and EF86 tubes are carefully selected to match the original's specifications. A redesigned power supply meets modern safety standards while providing the exact same sonic performance. The result is a mic that looks, sounds and functions just like its iconic namesake.
High SPL Handling and Low Noise
Don't let the U 67 Reissue's vintage style fool you—it is a thoroughly modern mic ready for any recording challenge. With a maximum SPL of 124dB, you can confidently place it in front of loud guitar amps and boisterous drum kits. And a thoughtfully designed tube circuit and transformer provide a ruler-flat frequency response with minimal noise and distortion.
Premium Vintage Style, Accessible Price
While original U 67 mics in working condition are rare and extremely expensive, the U 67 reissue gives you legendary U 67 sound and style at a price any serious home or project studio can afford. Everything about this mic, from the nickel-plated brass body to the vintage-style suspension mount, exudes premium quality and attention to detail. Any musician or engineer will appreciate the U 67 reissue's blend of vintage character and modern performance.
