I have an old blue straight shaft M260 and I love for vocals....Im scared of using it on stage incase it gets hurt so i would like to buy a new one.....I understand the only new one I can buy is the m260.80 with built in filter via the transformer I read it doesnt sound as good......
I am currently planning to make a stage mic using a shure Sh55 shell for its looks but im fussy about the sound....please see the link to the thread of my plan at end of this post...
Im thinking of maybe buying the ribbon motor from beyer and fitting it into my shure SH55 shell.....I would need a transformer...anyone no a good one fo this job ?...have more room in the shure shell is good I hope....I have a T bone RB500 transformer and a couple of reslos and an interesting grampian which is selling for lots of money on Ebay ....I bet these wouldnt be as good as the original tho ? so anyone have the answer
Check out my thread ....as youl see I may end up with a condenser in the shell but would still be interested in the M260 mic as i think il buy a new capsule motor or even a new 260.80 for spares for my little blue one...
thanks for reading...
