Really it is a matter of taste. All the major CK12 manufacturers capsules sound slightly different based on our particular favorite example of CK12. Read a bit and maybe listen to some sound files to see which one suits you.
Thanks for the info, Tim. I found out, that there's a lot of them.. especially "cheap" Chinese ones, which i'm trying to avoid.
I wouldn't know the difference between a $50 capsule and a $500 one... all wine tastes the same to me!
If I have to test each capsule, they all need to be tested in the same body.. that's the only accuracy I'll trust.
So that's not an option, that's why im asking around trying to hear peoples experiences.
I obviously want quality -that's why yours stood out, priced at $350. But I don't know anything about your built quality, nor the Chinese built quality.
I do know that stuff that are produced in China is cheaper because of labour.. but often they do take shortcuts and sell you low quality components/builds for the same low price as the good quality products.
I also know that labour in Denmark is ridiculously high -so I was wondering how much of that went into the final sales-price and how much "quality components" we're getting out of the final price... don't get me wrong, im sure your stuff is top notch
I found this Australian capsule at $430 from
BeesNeez.
If affordability isn’t an issue just buy a real CK12. It’s a matter of opinion but I don’t think anything is comparable to the real thing, except for in the ways it isn’t the real thing.
I meant affordability regarding
one components, not the entire mic it self
Spending $100 on a shitty capsule -might as well spend $500 and get the best.
Obviously, I don't have +$15,000 to spend on
one microphone.. I wouldn't be here if I had that kind of money.
Some say they're here for the fun of DIY, even when they can afford the real originals.. again, if I had that kind of money, I would hire someone
from here and have them built the mic for me.
