At the heart of the microphone is a premium German-made CK12 capsule, a NOS ECC85 vacuum tube, and a custom Cinemag transformer, providing a rich and open sonic character with extended low-frequency response and impressive headroom. The result is a smooth, natural sound that excels on vocals, acoustic instruments, pianos, strings, drum overheads, and orchestral recordings. (B&H Photo Video)

Its carefully engineered design offers improved low-end response and higher SPL handling compared to many vintage tube microphones while maintaining the musical character that made the original 251 design legendary.
