Why settle for less when you can have the best  The ELA M 260 Small Diaphragm Vacuum Tube Microphone, a product of Telefunken's superior craftsmanship, is a standout in the audio recording industry. Known for its exceptional detail and clarity, this high-quality microphone is a top choice for professionals seeking to capture the authentic tone of acoustic and classical music.Unlike the Diamond Series, this version of the ELA M 260 is not a historical replica of the original, but it still embodies the meticulous attention to detail and high-quality standards synonymous with Telefunken Elektroakustik. The ELA M 260's unique tonal character makes it a versatile tool, adept at recording a wide range of acoustic instruments, from violin, cello, and upright bass to drum overheads, percussion, woodwinds, and saxophones. It's particularly effective for capturing the rich resonance of an acoustic guitar and despite its compact size, it excels in vocal applications as well.At the heart of the ELA M 260 is a new circuit design, centered around a New Old Stock (NOS) 5840W vacuum tube. This, coupled with a custom output transformer wound to precise specifications in the United States, results in a small diaphragm microphone that is both unique and reminiscent of the vintage microphones it was inspired by.The ELA M 260 system comes equipped with an interchangeable TK60 Cardioid capsule, designed to capture sound sources in front of the microphone while minimizing sound from other directions. This makes it an ideal choice for recording live performances, interviews, or any situation where you want to focus on a specific sound source. Additional TK61 Omnidirectional and TK62 Hypercardioid capsules can be purchased separately for added versatility.Each ELA M 260 system also includes a new M 902 power supply, an M 860 25' dual-shielded tube microphone cable with a right-angle female XLR connector, an M 761 elastic shock mount, and a durable hard shell zipper carrying case for safe storage and transport. Experience the difference of professional-grade audio recording with the ELA M 260 Small Diaphragm Vacuum Tube Microphone.
