Hi folks!
Some tasty information for you.
Had an experience to see what is inside of KAT Red mic few days ago.
2K$+ mic. Gearslutz tell me that it should be sweet.
But this sounds like a peace of crap. Sound like +10db on 7kHz and -10dB on 200Hz. I think something wrong with it. I have an assumption that it fell on the floor.
Schematically it is close to ELA251 or C24.
It use 6111 tube, 10K:600 cinemag output trx and output cap connected after output transformer primary. Same cap configuration I've seen in a couple tube Oktava's. Can anybody tell me more about that cap config?
My quick inspection of mic did not show any problems, all voltages are ok, so may be bad tube or bad capsule.
Inside it is made very well. Good component selection, well layout, so it should sound good.

Does anybody know whose CK12 capsule is it?
