Here is ahort video of disassembling M23 connector:

You have to push the female contact with your thumb and at the same time hold the threaded ring with other two fingers. Then turn the connector body pushing with your thumb and don't letting the contacts turn together. Use the same method in assembling it back.

Kind regards,
Andrew

Thanks Andrew.  It was not at all obvious to me! haha

Hi,

Also I would strongly recommend to solder or glue the connector washer to the tread after it is tightened. This will help to avoid from loosening it while using your mic. You will also notice that upper and lower sides of washer are slightly different. The one which has an even surface must go up and the one  with turned small ring around perimeter must touch the body end bell.


Kind regards,
Andrew

Is that a Beesneez Capsule and Mount? How does it sound?

Microphone-parts. RK-47 - I don't have power supplies built yet (I actually have a pair in build process right now.)  Too many sessions eating up my time.

[Andriejus]

I have received one of my U47 kits and am really impressed with the quality of every detail in the package.  The finish on the body looks excellent. The head grill is sturdy, uniform and has a very fine finish.  Everything fits together neatly and it certainly has an expensive feel. Even the box is if a quality you just don't see from the Chinese vendors.  Superb. 

The connector is also awesome.  I think we are purely spoiled by the quality of parts we have access to these days.  I'm sure the big name mic makers don't like it very much though.  Amazing work Andrew.  I can't wait to get some more of these into my hands.  Thanks for your attention to detail throughout the project!

I am looking forward to receiving a pair soon.

I too am interested in three rail versions and it has occurred to me that this could be facilitated with the addition of just a couple more holes in the bottom bell and the top plate. All of the extra holes would be hidden from view in the final assembly and so it is possible to imagine the availability of one mic package that can be assembled with either a two rail or three rail configuration.

It seems as if a small addition to the G-code for the CNC machining of the bottom bell and the laser(?) cutting of the top plate could facilitate this and add tremendous value to the package.

I'd request two additional bodies ASAP if I could have a three rail option.

I Andrew,

I emailed you an order. Just want to make sure you got it? Cheers!

Hi all,

Body tubes and end bells for a second run are being finished:

And I also will receive a sample of new plating. This new plating is used for first run parts which are being fixed and will be used for a second run:

Kind regards,
Andrew

A few extra holes would offer a great benefit to builders interested in point to point recreations while it wouldn't seem to detract from the PCB builders in any way.
