Product Description

A faithful modern replica of one of the most coveted large-diaphragm condenser mics ever made, the FLEA Microphones FLEA47 delivers the legendary Neumann U 47 sound with meticulous attention to detail. This comes with the F47 capsule - Flea's identical clone of an early version of the brass rings K47 capsule providing enhanced top-end. It also includes the Telefunken EF12 Tube upgrade.

The BV8 transformer is one of the defining components of the original Neumann U 47's sound, contributing significantly to its low-end weight, harmonic richness, and overall character. The FLEA47 includes a faithful replica of the classic BV8, ensuring the signal path honors the original design rather than approximating it with modern substitutes. The BV8 plays a critical role in shaping the microphone's impedance characteristics and its interaction with your mic preamp, both of which affect tone in ways that are immediately audible.
