Hi all,

just about to finish a G7 and thinking about extra mics for my set up. 

I fancy a couple of DIY ribbon mics - but I am having trouble locating any N42 neo bar magnets in circa 6mm x 6mm x 50mm here in the UK.  I have everything else i need to build a couple of nice mics.

Can anyone recommend a magnet source or specific magnets I could get hold of ?

Thanks
PeteC
 
They are in the states but they may ship over seas, I buy my magnets from them.

First 4 magnets are uk based and have a pretty good stock.

Also supermagnete.de in Germany have a good stock. You can even order custom sizes from them, although you will need to get 100.

Between them I have found magnets for most of my projects.
 
Ok thanks guys,

I looked at First4magnets but couldn't find a 6mm x 50mm in N42 - I'll look at the supermagnete.de option too.

maybe I should just change my plan to suit whatever magnets are in easy supply

..any size recommendations ?

Rgds
Pete
