ADK Microphones TC-251 Large Diaphragm Cardioid Tube Condenser Microphone 2015 - 2018 - Nickel

I have recently upgraded so I am offloading this mic. The TC line has been discontinued so your only option for an ADK tube mic these days will set you back $3k or more. Description below: The ADK TC-251 is a professional large-diaphragm tube condenser microphone inspired by the legendary Telefunken ELA M 251. Designed to deliver vintage-inspired warmth, clarity, and detail, the TC-251 offers a rich, full-bodied sound with smooth highs, detailed mids, and a balanced low-frequency response. Featuring Class A tube circuitry and a fixed cardioid polar pattern, the TC-251 excels on lead vocals, backing vocals, acoustic guitars, piano, strings, and other studio applications. Its vintage-inspired sonic character makes it an excellent choice for engineers and musicians seeking the musicality of a classic tube microphone without the expense of an original 251.
