Neumann U67 Clone : D-U67 Tube Microphone Build Thread.

Got perhaps another capsule you could install, just for testing? It's making less and less sense every minute...

Would it be crazy to test with an M7 capsule? That way I don't have to butcher my other 67...

Ok, tested with an M7 and it works! I'll put the K67 back and hope for the best but if it is in fact a bad capsule, what could've happened?! Is there any way to remedy it?

Update: I reached out and Ben said he would replace it. I’m still curious how this might have been intermittent for 2-3 years and then finally kicked the can. Especially since it’s not isolated backplates. Any ideas @soliloqueen?

might be some kind of short considering the rings are metal
