The development of the BV-1 mkII was a “spare-no-expense” approach to microphone design — every single component was chosen for its sound quality. This has resulted in capacitors being used from 6 different boutique companies such as Solen, Nichicon, Wima, Elna, Kyocera and Epcos. Avantone worked with many of these companies to manufacture custom capacitors just for the BV-1 mkII, as only the very best would deliver our sonic quality.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe BV-1 mkII also features a custom Cinemag output transformer designed for this microphone, as well as a handpicked edge-terminated 34mm CK12-style capsule. The culmination of these components led to a design that has huge bottom-end, and smooth yet airy top-end. The proximity effect lends itself to a massive sound that can add body and a sense of presence to any vocals. Though the original BV-1 remains a top contender as a world-class vocal mic, the expanded versatility of the BV-1 mkII also makes for a top choice for use with percussion, piano, mandolin, brass, winds, and even guitar cabinets. The BV-1 mkII is ready for anything.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEverything you need.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe BV-1 mkII includes a suite of all the accessories you need. The power supply, just as the microphone itself, is a “spare-no-expense” design. The ultra high quality 7 pin cable is custom made by Sommer in Germany — this is one of the very best 7 pin cables in existence; using thicker gauge conductors for the valve heater and heater ground that ensures the vacuum tube is always being provided the best current.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA hardshell briefcase keeps everything together; even the included wood presentation box that stores the microphone itself. The included shockmount holds the microphone snug, and the included pop filter helps recording in even the toughest environments.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AudioNest","offers":[{"title":"New | In Stock","offer_id":68012227166407,"sku":"BV1MK2","price":599.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Repack | In Stock","offer_id":68012227199175,"sku":"BV1MK2EBAYPRO","price":411.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0820\/0575\/4055\/files\/avantone_-_bv-1_mkii_-_bundle.jpg?v=1792781220","url":"https:\/\/audionestt.shop\/products\/avantone-bv-1-mkii-large-diaphragm-tube-condenser-microphone-bv1mk2","provider":"AudioNest","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
