Front End Audio frequently has gear that has been opened and used for demo purposes in our in-house studio. These items have been handled by our staff and are otherwise just like new and carry a full manufacturer warranty. These items include everything as if new and have been repackaged in the original manufacturer packaging. So if you don't mind minor signs of use, an occasional fingerprint or second layer of tape on the box, then you can grab a great deal on this Soyuz Microphones 017 FET Microphone today!
The Soyuz Microphones 017 FET Microphone delivers sound as rich, warm, and beautiful as its handcrafted, polished design suggests. Swappable capsules make this high performance microphone at home in a wide range of critical recording applications, from vocals to orchestral instruments. The Soyuz Microphones 017 FET Microphone shares the SU-017's cardioid capsule, featuring a gold-sputtered, hand-tuned one-inch diaphragm. An omni-directional capsule is currently available, with additional patterns in development. As with all Soyuz microphones, the SU-019 is completely handmade: bodies and capsules are manually machined, transformers are wound in-house, and all wiring is true point-to-point. The Soyuz Microphones 017 FET Microphone features a carefully designed, low-noise Field Effect Transistor topography and the rich sound of custom in-house created and crafted toroidal transformers.
In addition to excelling at recording vocals and orchestral instruments, the SU-017 FET has proven to be flexible –with the included screw on -10dB pad, ideal for recording such difficult to capture high-decibel sources as kick drums and guitar and bass amplifiers. The 017 FET employs the same handmade capsule as the SU-017, a proprietary toroidal transformer, and a completely original circuit design. These elements work together to deliver a tonal character that is as rich and detailed as it's tube brother's, but with the slightly faster transient response characteristic of a FET microphone.
