Offering a forward mid-range and extended low-end response, the extremely versatile U47 has been a must-have mic for any serious vocal and classical recording project for more than 70 years.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eA REVELATION REBORN\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe first condenser mic to offer a choice of pickup patterns, with selectable cardioid or omnidirectional polar responses, the Telefunken U47 is considered by generations of engineers and artists to be one of the finest microphones ever produced. When it was first introduced in the late-1940s its detailed high-end and sweet sonic character were a revelation to listeners more familiar with the darker, less transparent sound of the standard ribbon microphones of the era.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eA TIMELESS CLASSIC RE-ENGINEERED\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe original components that helped give the U47 its clarity and tone are no longer made, so Telefunken Elektroakustik has gone to great lengths to recreate this classic tube mic for new generations. The military surplus VF14M vacuum tubes used in the original U47 amplifier are now extremely rare and pricey, so Telefunken Elektroakustik has specially developed the VF14K, a plug-and-play replacement. Georg Neumann’s famous M7 capsule, used in various early mic models, has been reengineered, as has the BV8 output transformer, using modern materials and manufacturing methods. With all those components snugly fitted inside the familiar large chrome head grille and matte nickel-finished body, the result is a modern take on a timeless classic that offers all the sonic character of the original.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eA VERSATILE WORKHORSE\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe dual pattern U47 is versatile in the extreme, capable of faithfully capturing every nuance of a solo singer’s performance or backing vocal arrangements, while equally at home in front of a guitar cabinet or drums. Favored by many when recording acoustic instruments, from a soloist to a chamber ensemble to a symphony orchestra, the U47 will give you the rich, smooth and vibrant character you expect every time.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3 id=\"toc_0\"\u003eFEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eClassic punchy, mid-forward sound with pleasing bite \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLegendary extended low frequency response \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCardioid and Omni polar pattern selection \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUS-made historically accurate M7 center-terminated capsule \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTelefunken Elektroakustik VF14k vacuum tube \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePoint-to-point wired in the USA true to the original design \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes American-made vintage-compatible cable and fully regulated power supply \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Telefunken Elektroakustik","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44654855487591,"sku":"516426","price":8495.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/telefunken-elektroakustik-u47-tube-condenser-microphone-710-used_516426_1_db120b3f-8ab7-470e-9fdb-6cc2559a04b4.jpg?v=1789740315","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.com\/products\/telefunken-elektroakustik-u47-tube-condenser-microphone-710-used","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
