V-12 Tube Microphone
The V12 is our custom C12-style tube microphone, handbuilt to order in California using premium parts. It is comparable in performance to commercial mics in the $1900-$5000 range. Features: Vintage tone 9 polar patterns Elastic shockmount Power supply Robust flightcase From the edge-terminated capsule to the handpicked components and custom output transformer, this mic is all about vintage vibe. The capsule is our edge-terminated CK12 recreation. The tube is a low-noise, selected 6072a. The circuit is our version of the ElaM 251 circuit, made with handpicked, audiophile-grade parts including a custom US-made transformer. Cosmetic Details The V-12 is available in a painted black finish with antiqued brass MP logo badge. We occasionally have these available in a custom vintage silver powdercoat color. Use the drop-down menu above to select the color. If the "add to cart" button changes to "sold out," that means we no longer have the silver color available. Power supply options Th
