Transducer manufacturer Brauner Microphones
will formally unveil the Phantom V - their first variable-pattern, non-tube (FET),
large diaphragm microphone - at the 117th AES Convention in San Francisco.
Building on the Phantom C fixed cardioid FET model, Brauner's
latest addition to the Phantom Series, offers switchable
omni-directional, cardioid, and figure-eight polar patterns, as well as a
-15dB pad.
The Dirk Brauner-designed, German-crafted, Phantom V features a satin nickel
finish and the renowned, hefty build quality for which Brauner microphones
are known. The Phantom V - whose capsule is based on the
Brauner VM1 tube microphone - boasts a self-noise of 8dBa, a
maximum SPL of 142dB at 0.3% THD, and a frequency range of 20Hz-22kHz. The
Phantom V package comes complete with the Brauner SMV shock-mount suspension
system, custom aluminum case, cable, and user manual.
Brauner mics are sold direct in U.S. by TransAudio Group, located in Las
Vegas, Nevada.
MSRP: $2,500
