The BeesNeez Tribute 2 Tube Microphone brings the legendary sonic character of the classic ELA M 250 and 251 microphones into the modern recording studio, delivering the rich tube warmth, silky highs, and beautifully open midrange that have defined countless iconic recordings.
Handcrafted in Australia, this premium large-diaphragm tube condenser microphone combines the celebrated BeesNeez CK12 capsule with a carefully engineered tube circuit and custom-wound toroidal transformer to capture performances with remarkable depth, detail, and musicality. Whether you're recording intimate vocals, expressive acoustic instruments, or full-bodied ensembles, the Tribute 2 delivers that unmistakable vintage-inspired sound with the precision and reliability of modern craftsmanship. It's a microphone designed to make great performances sound extraordinary. At the heart of the BeesNeez Tribute 2 is the handcrafted BeesNeez CK12 capsule, inspired by one of the most revered capsule designs in recording history. Known for its airy high-frequency response, smooth midrange, and detailed low-frequency reproduction, this capsule captures the subtle nuances that bring recordings to life. Paired with a NOS 5784WB vacuum tube and the BeesNeez T14-T toroidal transformer, the Tribute 2 delivers a harmonically rich, three-dimensional sound that combines vintage character with exceptional clarity. Nine selectable polar patterns, ranging from omnidirectional to figure-eight, provide outstanding flexibility for everything from solo vocal sessions to acoustic instruments, room recordings, and sophisticated stereo microphone techniques. Unlike microphones designed as exact replicas of vintage classics, the Tribute 2 is an original BeesNeez design that embraces the sonic heritage of the ELA M 250 and 251 while incorporating contemporary engineering and construction. Every major component, including the capsule, transformer, body, head grille, and power supply, is manufactured in-house at the BeesNeez factory in Australia. This meticulous approach to craftsmanship ensures exceptional consistency, durability, and long-term performance. For recording engineers, producers, and musicians looking for a premium tube studio microphone that delivers vintage-inspired elegance without sacrificing modern versatility, the BeesNeez Tribute 2 is an inspiring addition to any serious microphone collection.
