The QUANTUM Q47 is a superbly handcrafted tube microphone, meticulously constructed using the finest materials available today. It boasts partial assembly with NOS (New Old Stock) parts, including a SIEMENS tube, vintage resistors, and vintage capacitors. Additionally, we’ve engineered a bespoke BV08 transformer to infuse it with a smooth, vibrant sound. The microphone features a German-made M7 capsule, renowned for imparting character and exquisite sensitivity to recordings. Ideal for professional use in film, television, radio, and podcasts, the Quantum Q47 excels as a post-production tool.
A vacuum tube microphone offers unparalleled sound quality, characterized by smooth clipping and a musical warmth often preferred over transistor-based alternatives. Its wider dynamic range, owing to higher operating voltages and superior overload tolerance, ensures fidelity in diverse recording scenarios. Notably, tube circuits exhibit high linearity without necessitating negative feedback, particularly in small-signal applications. They remain remarkably stable across varying temperatures and feature simplified biasing, enhancing user convenience. Furthermore, tubes demonstrate remarkable resilience against large overloads and voltage spikes. Additionally, their user-replaceable nature facilitates straightforward maintenance and customization.
