FS: Neumann K870/K67 capsule in great condition +mount

[karloff70]

Hi Chaps,

I am selling my Neumann K870/K67 capsule. I tried to run it in my G7 but couldn't tame the high end in a good way in the end, so am giving in and will be putting a Thiersch M7 in there instead, so have to let this Neumann go to pay for it. Also not looking to build any more mics in a hurry, so no use for it.

The capsule does sound very. very good indeed and if one of you is doing the DIY U67 this will bring it home with a home run. That is the one thought that made me doubt whether I should sell it, building the 67 with it, but I just need to make music right now, not solder even more stuff, so this will make someone else's build sound amazing instead.

As you can see on the pic, there is some dust on the capsule. I assure you it has absolutely no effect whatsoever, as the mic it came out of was pin drop quiet and did not react in any way whatsoever to voice moisture, so I would just leave it be rather than overzealously cleaning it. If you want pics sent to you, please pm me.

Lookiing for £360 plus postage (new ones are £600 now), including the Neumann capsule mount.

Cheers,

Right, I couldn't make the capsule work in a satisfying manner in the G7, so it is back on sale as of right now. This time definitely.

No idea why no one wants this superb sounding capsule at not much more than half price than what Sennheiser sell them for.........still looking for a new home.....

 

[RuudNL]

I think that if nobody is interested after 6 months(!), there might be something wrong with the price...

 

[karloff70]

Ok.

So if Sennheiser sell them for 604 GBP and I propose this great condition one for 360GBP that is wrong? What would you say is a fair price?
