The Big Boy of Avantone's "Cabernet (C-Series)" True Condenser FET Circuit LDC Microphone Family. Avantone's proven transformer-coupled circuitry is paired with our new super-sensitive 34mm 6-micron capsule. Avantone's new proprietary "edge terminated, dual backplate" and "custom style" metallized capacitors help deliver exactly what you expect from the best "studio standard" FET-LDC mics money can buy. Full bass response, rich mids and smooth well-defined highs, without the harsh edge associated with pickups that don't cost the king's ransom.
Anyone familiar with the Avantone C-series knows it's tough. The CK-7 sports a milled solid brass shell and woven steel grille, with no breakable plastic parts used. A retro-style custom 16-point shock mount provides superior vibration isolation, ensuring that no bass resonance ever reaches the mic. An 80k high pass and -10db pad are ready to be activated, to keep your track crystal clear of unwanted noise and distortion free. When you consider the three-way polar pattern selector (cardioid, omnidirectional, and figure-8), full response, and noise reduction, the CK-7 might be the most versatile and inexpensive LDC FET available.
