Vanguard Audio Labs V44S gen2 Stereo FET Condenser Microphone - Eclipse Edition

Product Description

The Vanguard Audio Labs V44S gen2 stereo FET condenser microphones is available here in an exclusive cosmos-black “Eclipse Edition”. Scientists tell us that the oldest conclusive solar eclipse on record dates to around 1200 B.C.E., when scribes in China recorded eclipses on ox bones and tortoise shells. But it’s possible there’s an even earlier record in a group of spiral-shaped and circular petroglyphs discovered in Ireland that date back to 3340 B.C.E.

In this century, rather than ox bones or cave walls, Vanguard Audio has decided to celebrate the darkness by marking the 2024 total solar eclipse on each of their large diaphragm FET condenser microphones - the V4 gen2 and stereo V44S gen2. Each of these limited edition jewels will be finished in a lush, dense cosmos-black and sport a unique laser-engraved representation of the 2024 solar eclipse. The laser engraving is done in-house by Vanguard's certified laser artist. These Eclipse Edition versions will only be offered for a short time, and in very limited quantities. Don’t miss out on one of these totally historic editions!

The Vanguard V44S is a stereo large-diaphragm multi-pattern FET condenser microphone.
