Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphones

ADK offers the Audiophile Series of LDC's. They were created for critical recording environments and fine acoustic sources.

An affordable alternative to the super-expensive European mics, the Audiophile Series ADK Microphones have many European sourced components and European Designs.

The Apex460 tube condenser microphone is designed for recording both critical vocals and instruments. The dual diaphragm multi-pattern design gives you nine different polar pattern settings to get the right microphone sound for every studio application.

The Sputnik is a multi-pattern large diaphragm vacuum tube condenser microphone. The Solaris is a large-capsule multi-pattern condenser microphone. The Luna is a professional large-capsule condenser microphone.

The TS-2 is a multi-pattern large diaphragm tube condenser microphone designed for sonic clarity with rugged construction. It features newly designed vacuum tube electronics and a continuously variable pattern selector to provide a high level of versatility at an affordable price.

The MK 219 is a fixed pattern, cardioid microphone featuring a large diaphragm capsule teamed with a low noise discreet preamplifier circuit. The MK 220 is a twin diaphragm, multi-pattern microphone developed from the Oktava MK-319. The MK-319 is a fixed-pattern, cardioid, large diaphragm mic intended for studio and broadcast usage. The MK-105 uses the MKL-5000 capsule but uses different head and body construction. It is designed for vocals, grand pianos, guitars and percussion.

The Z3300A is a versatile FET microphone and utilises a large 1.07” twin diaphragm, which gives the engineer a choice of three polar patterns, omni, cardioid and figure of eight. The Z5600a II has nine graded steps through omni, cardioid and figure of eight patterns, and a 10dB pad and bass cut. It can be used in a number of applications, from mic-ing a live drum kit, to overhead on a choir. The ICIS shares the same large 1.07" gold-sputtered, edge mount diaphragm as the Z5600a, with a fixed cardioid pattern.

MXL offers a huge line of LDC's, from single diaphragm FET's to dual diaphragm mics to vacuum tube design to stereo microphones.

The Trion 8000 multi-pattern condenser tube microphone uses an extra large diaphragm, RF pentode, iron core, and 120 volts of drive. The Trion 6000 multi-pattern condenser microphone uses two externally-biased large diaphragms, field-effect detection and iron core drive. The Equitek e300 multi-pattern condenser microphone uses an externally-biased large-diaphragm capsule and high-power transformerless electronics to deliver vocal impact. The Equitek e100 supercardioid condenser microphone uses high-power transformerless electronics with point-source transduction for strength and precision. Good for drums and guitars.

The CK-6 microphone uses transformerless Discreet Class A FET circuitry that will yield pleasing professional results comparable to much more expensive designs. The CK-7 is a multi-pattern version of the CK-6. The CK-33 is a stereo FET mic with dual cardioid capsules. The CK-40 is a stereo FET Mic with dual multi-pattern capsules. The CV-12 is a multi-pattern tube microphone, while the CV-28 is a tube Mic with three capsules.

The JM37-DP is a high quality, large diaphragm condenser microphone with cardioid and omni patterns utilizing FET devices for both preamplifier and output stages,

Samson offers a full line of large diaphragm condensers, including the C01, C03, the CL7, and the CL8.
