Tuotekoodi: RN17-PAIR | ID: 230528
Condenser studio microphone set. Consisting of two RN17 microphones with custom shockmount. When purchased as a pair, the capsules are factory-matched for perfect tolerance, guaranteeing the best possible stereo image. This is the world's first pencil microphone with a large-scale, hand-wound, ultra high performance transformer. The second product of the sE / Rupert Neve collaboration, work on the RN17 began with a discussion between Rupert and Siwei Zou on the merits and problems of small-diaphragm condensers.
With
a 15mm diaphragm (the world's smallest production gold-sputtered
diaphragm), the transient response of the RN17 is unparalleled. Such a
small capsule reacts extremely quickly, and is therefore adept at
picking up the most delicate of high-frequency content. Made obvious by
the unusual chassis shape, the RN17's transformer is substantially
larger than the norm. This full-scale transformer was custom-designed by
Rupert Neve specifically for this microphone - and nobody has been
designing audio transformers longer (or better) than Rupert Neve. With
an audio transformer of this magnitude, the RN17 is able to put out
astonishing clarity across ALL frequencies - not just the highs. The
midrange is detailed and forward, the lows are full and accurate, and
the whole microphone has a balance and headroom never before achieved
with a small-capsule microphone. The matte black finish minimizes the
level of visual attention drawn to the microphone when used on stage or
in the studio, allowing it to blend into the background. The RN17 ships
with a cardioid capsule, but the wooden box has room for additional
capsules in the form of omni, cardioid cut, hypercardioid, and figure-8.
These capsules can be utilized for enhanced room sound (omni), low
frequency control (cardioid cut) greater side rejection (hypercardioid),
or mid-side recording techniques (figure-8). Every RN17 includes a
custom-designed, sturdy, protective, and easy-to-use shock mount, which
is essential to reducing the unwanted effects of vibration or knocks to
the supporting microphone stand. Frequency range: 20 Hz - 20
kHz. Impedance: 200 Ohm. Dimensions: 200 x 44 mm (transformer), 200 x 17
mm (capsule). Hmotnosť: 330 g
