Avantone CK7+ Large-Diaphragm Condenser Microphone

The CK7+ is the big boy of Avantone’s “Cabernet (C-series)” true condenser FET circuit LDC mic family, featuring a proven transformer-coupled circuit paired with a 34 mm, super sensitive 6-micron capsule. Avantone’s “edge terminated, dual backplate” and “custom style” metalized capacitors help provide exactly what you’d want from studio-standard FET-LDC mics. Enjoy a full low-end, rich midrange response and well-defined smooth highs, without a harsh edge.

The CK-7 sports a solid brass milled hull and woven steel-grille, without any breakable plastic parts. A custom Retro-style 16-point shockmount provides superior isolation from vibration, assuring no low-end resonance ever reaches the mic. An 80k high pass and –10dB pad are ready to be engaged to keep your track immaculately clear from unwanted noise and distortion free. When you consider the three-way polar pattern selector (Cardioid, Omnidirectional and figure 8), full-range response and noise abatement, the CK-7 might be the most versatile FET LDC available.
