The Avantone BV-1 Multi-Pattern Large Capsule Valve Microphone is an all around multipurpose microphone, which has no limitations to capture any voice or instrument.
The Avantone BV1 offers premium sonic performance and flexibility. The BV-1 has a “Retro/Butter-Cream” finish with polished Nickel trim that exudes elegance that is equaled by the audio performance.
A low-noise, hand selected 6072A tube is used as well as premium grade capacitors and resistors in order to provide the professional engineer an incredible microphone. The edge-terminated, custom designed & voiced 34mm/3 micron dual capsule assembly offers exceptional sensitivity with a very open, rich texture. Plenty of smooth, airy top end without being “edgy” or harsh.
A custom design “USA MADE” CineMag output transformer was developed because of its rich, yet linear output
