The king(s) of stereo mics?👑 All three available now, serviced, with warranty! Neumann SM69 FET - £4800 Neumann USM69i Nickel - £4200 Neumann USM69i MT - £4320 First introduced in its original tube form in 1964, the Neumann SM 69 FET is a legendary solid-state, large-diaphragm stereo condenser microphone designed for coincident stereo techniques (X-Y, M-S, Blumlein). Featuring two independently controlled K67/K870 capsules in a single housing, it provides high-precision audio for classical, jazz, and studio overheads, often described as a transistor-based, dual-U87. There are a few differences between the Neumann SM69 (FET) and the USM69i, most notably that the USM69i is a modern solid-state update that integrates the pattern control switches onto the microphone body, whereas the earlier SM69 FET requires an external selector/supply. While both share the same dual-capsule design, the original SM69 FET features discrete circuitry, 9 polar patterns, and usually a little more “character” in the highs (simply due to useage), whilst the USM69i provides higher headroom and lower noise thanks to its updated circuitry. Incredible mics that should be in every mic locker. All three are available now with free next day delivery! #proaudio #neumannmicrophones #recordingstudio #soundengineer #audioengineer

This beautiful pair of Sanken CU-41s are available now. Serviced, in perfect working order. £3600 inc VAT for the pair but the client is also happy to split them up if need be. Often dubbed (somewhat dramatically) the “U87 killer”, the CU-41 is an incredibly versatile microphone that features a dual-capsule design, with each capsule tailored to a specific frequency range (highs and mid/lows). The two signals are then blended into a single mono output, resulting in a highly detailed and exceptionally natural response that excels on both male and female vocals, piano (it’s one of our favourites for upright) and acoustic string instruments in particular. Available now with free next day delivery. Shop now via the site.😎 #recordinggear #soundengineer #soundengineer #audioengineering #microphone

Superbooth 26 ✅ Three packed days at FEZ Berlin, and every minute was worth it. Superbooth is one of those events where the whole pro audio world ends up in the same room — and this year was no exception. At our booth (O190 & O191) we had the Neve 8424 console ready to play, alongside Neve, @dangerousmusic Music outboard and @telegrapherloudspeakers Plenty of conversations, plenty of questions, plenty of hands on the knobs. Just the way we like it. Thanks to everyone who stopped by 🙏 #Superbooth26 #Superbooth #FEZBerlin #FunkyJunk #Neve8424 #Neve #DangerousMusic #ProAudio #SynthesizerFair #Berlin

@trinnov NOVA on demo now at Funky Junk!🌀 We’ve had Trinnov’s D-MON room correction running in our demo room for some time now, so we’re very familiar with what the system can do. That said, it’s no secret that Trinnov’s flagship systems can feel a bit daunting, for newbies and pros alike. The Nova changes that. It packs Trinnov’s powerful room and monitor optimisation into a compact 1U unit and adds intuitive (idiot-proof, really) control via new Windows, Mac, and iOS apps. Smaller, more approachable, and more affordable than the ST2 Pro and D-MON, it’s still a serious investment - but one that delivers outstanding results, even in a professionally treated room like ours. Huge thanks to Jake at @emerginguk for coming down and opening our eyes (and ears!) to what Nova can do. We’ve paired our unit with ATC SCM25s to great effect, so book a demo today to experience Trinnov NOVA for yourself!✌️ #trinnivnova #recordingstudio #soundengineer #proaudio #audioengineering

Had the great pleasure of visiting @winchesteraudiobarn today for a demonstration of their state-of-the-art studio facility. A stunning space filled with some iconic pieces, not least of all a Wurlitzer that once belonged to the Doors (complete with cigarette burn from Amy Winehouse, who used it extensively), and the original Sun Studios Fairchild 670 (Elvis, Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison, B.B. King etc… the list goes on) 🤯. Huge thanks to Niall and the team for having us along, and congratulations to all involved!👏 @winchesteraudiobarn @winchesterautobarn @musicproducersguild @stuartbruce1 @mattowensmusic @pmcspeakers @prismsoundrecording @solidstatelogic @sontronics @joecoombsguitarist @j.weaver28 . . . #recordingstudio #soundengineering #proaudio #musicproduction #audioengineer

In Stock Now! @beesneez_pro_audio BN251. Shop now via the site… The BeesNeez Pro Audio BN251 is a large-diaphragm, multi-pattern tube condenser microphone, hand-crafted in Australia. It’s a true mechanical recreation of the classic AKG-built Telefunken ELA M 251 - famous since the 1950s for its smooth, airy, and beautifully rounded sound. Key Features: ✅ True 1:1 Mechanical Replica
The BN251 faithfully reproduces the original microphone’s body, connector, and power supply, delivering the same iconic look and classic performance. ✅ BeesNeez CK12 Capsule
At the heart of the mic is the BeesNeez CK12 capsule, featuring the classic split back-plate, multi-chamber design that’s widely regarded as one of the best CK12 recreations available. ✅ Custom Glass Amorphous Toroidal Transformer
A modern, custom-wound transformer provides accurate impedance conversion, smooth tonal balance, and a wide, detailed frequency response. ✅ Classic Tube Warmth
The original tube design is preserved, with field-swappable head and amplifier cartridges for easy servicing and the rich, vintage tone the 251 is known for. #elam251 #recordinggear #microphone #audioengineer #soundengineering

@telegrapherloudspeakers Gorilla S now in stock & on demo!🦍 Sonically, GORILLA S matches the original GORILLA exactly, but adds a second woofer for significantly increased headroom and a 6 dB output boost. This makes it an ideal choice as a centre speaker alongside two GORILLAs, or as a commanding left or right speaker in a stereo setup. We now have them set up in our dedicated demo room, patched in with the Elephant Sub for even more headroom and low-end extension. Book a demo today and come hear the full Telegrapher range alongside offerings from ATC, HEDD Audio Barefoot, Neumann and more! #proaudio #studiomonitors #recordingstudio #soundengineer #musicproducer
