This is a high-end microphone that is rarely available in Japan, currently selling for around 580,000 to 610,000 yen overseas. "Violet Designs Garnet" Multi-pattern Valve Microphone 115V specification. Includes: Main unit, dedicated power supply, PSU cable, dedicated shock mount, power cable, dedicated wooden box, and outer box (complete set). Violet Design, known for restoring vintage microphones like the NEUMANN U47, M50, and AKG C12. Violet Design, having mastered vintage microphones, proudly created the vacuum tube microphone, "Garnet." Its appeal lies in its sound, reminiscent of vintage microphones. It delivers a warm and rich sound unique to vacuum tubes, with particularly impressive low frequencies. Yet, it never sounds muffled, and there's no sluggish response often associated with vacuum tubes. The capsule uses the VD47 capsule, based on the NEUMANN U47 capsule, known as the KING of Microphones. The 9-pattern polar switch allows for a wide range of applications. While Violet Design's "flamingo" is a popular choice in professional studios, this is a more affordable tube microphone. It has been compared and reviewed against the AKG C12VR overseas, and it receives high praise from professional engineers. While the quality of current Violet Design products (handled by JZ Microphones?) seems questionable, this product was made in Latvia during the time when Violet Design microphones were gaining recognition for their excellence in professional studios, and when their sound quality exceeded their price. Therefore, it's unlikely to find a microphone of this quality at a similar price point today. Although there are some minor scratches and signs of use, there is no significant damage, and it functions well. I am selling this because I need the funds. Due to the rarity of this microphone, please only purchase if you have knowledge of setting up and handling it. No smoking, no pets.
