*bought on ebay, Nov. 2023 for 22,99€
Hey, thanks!Rayking
Great joke! May be some translation issues 😂Mackie Element EM-91C. On the package they say it is "Large-Diaphragm Condenser Microphone... built like a tank". I Think this is just another version of the BM-700 with small diaphragm cardioid electret capsule with fet. Saddle is made of flexible plastic. Bought from Cl4s 0hlson with quite good discount with mostly metallic shockmount and XLR cable (approximately same price as typical BM-700 from The Bay).

I have not seen this kind of capsule wiring with only two cables (black (-) connected to S and G and red (+) to D) before. Is it a conventional way to do it?
It's because that version of the capsule has a built-in FET. It's under that PCB disc with all the holes in it.Mackie Element EM-91C.

It's my understanding that it renders the capsule less directional at low frequencies giving it a behavior in that respect that's more like a dual-diaphragm LDC (of course, I could be wrong ).By the way - what purpose this Holed Halo or Old Phone Dial shaped capsule holder serves?
I've seen this already on (around?) some other capsules (and was too afraid to ask).
Is it meant to condition or deflect sound waves somehow or just Look Vintage & Cool?
