I am a retired TV Broadcast Engineer with an Electrical Engineering Degree.  My mics are built with Skill, Knowledge, and Care.

This is my version of the famous ELA M251.  It is multi-pattern for Cardioid, Figure 8, and Omni directional with steps in between. The capsule is a 34mm CK12 from JLI.  The tube is a Russian made Electro-Harmonics 6072a and the high nickel core transformer is from Cinemag.  This mic would be a great addition to any Home or Professional Studio.

If you don't love this mic, send it back.  Please check my feedback.
