JJ Audio Apex 460 "Dutch" Modified Microphone Circuit Choices

• C12: The JJ Audio Dutch C12 mod is a classic rendition of the AKG C12. The C12 is an elegant sounding circuit with a very smooth overall character and makes for a grand improvement with the stock 460 capsule. When coupled with the JJ12 or the Peluso CEK12, the lows are fuller, the mids are smoother and the high end is ethereal by comparison. Female vocals absolutely excel on the C12 circuit; as well acoustic guitar and drum overheads are a favored application.
• ELA M 251: The ELA M 251 is a more aggressive and forward sounding circuit with extended lows and highs with the stock 460 capsule. Definitely a rock star in its own right, when coupled with the JJ12 or the Peluso CEK12, the circuit takes on a totally different guise and presents the user with a very large and full sounding capture that excels on vocals, acoustic guitar and drum overheads.
