Mic Roundup Part 1: Mics Inspired by the Neumann U47 and AKG C12

Published on September 12, 2017

Hear the difference as Sonic Scoop’s Justin Colletti takes to Braund studios to contrast and compare many different microphones. The common through-line? All these mics are modelled on one of two classic capsules: The Neumann U47 and the AKG C 12. In this video, you’ll hear the results as Justin tests out the Telefunken ELAM 251, the Telefunken AR-51, the Manley Reference Cardioid, the Telefunken AK-47, and the Neumann U47 FET.
