MK67 - new U67 clone coming up

[JessJackson]

I'll collaberate with Chunger - PCB, mic body, PSU and probably the capsule will be included!

Can you keep PSU passive like dan's and original, no regulated heater psu please.

Cheers mate.

Without rectifier the mic would hell like hum
You probably meant regulation - but the original U67 heater IS regulated via Zener-shunt, not passive.
The B+ line is passive, of course.

How much of a difference would using the SYT-5 body/head basket make compared to the TLM67?

What is the difference between the MK67 and the D-U67?

 

[fishdrop]

hey max,

thanks for doing great mic kits. i was wondering which could be my next DIY mic project after the MK-U47.
maybe the U67 and voila Max is doing a MK67 Kit. so awesome!!!  ;D

all the best

I love it when a plan comes together

Waaaaaant!!!!

 

[dougch]

Wonderful kit! Do I understand that this will not be offered as a bare bones kit like the MK47?  It will be bundled with a body?

 

[ioaudio]

I plan to make both options available - with and without body/psu.

Is this an syt-5 based project or are you doing a custom body again.?

Superb ! Looks great Max!

The MataChunger universal PSU once available will play nice with your new mike kit ?

 

[ioaudio]

Yes, this version is for the  syt-5 body.

The Psu will be made from the "generic" Psu Chunger offers in his shop - just a modification is nescessary.

Only two resistors and the wiring missing:

[kmozart]

Waiting in the line! 

 

[ioaudio]

It's alive!
After finally receiving the missing resistors, plugging in a ef86, mounting a K67 and wiring the thing up it instandly worked as should:

 

[Melodeath00]

Fantastic! When will you post the comparison with the vintage U67, and when will orders begin?

 

[ioaudio]

I already did the tests with my prototype PCB this is the series PCB.
Everything worked as it should, freq/filter response was very identical the original.

I should have the first kits within one or two weeks.

I'm in for 1
Beautiful design there!

Wow!  please price them so that I can afford two Max.    I only build in pairs these days it seems.  Very excited.  Gotta get a few projects of the bench before this drops.
