The development of the BV-1 mkII was a “spare-no-expense” approach to microphone design — every single component was chosen for its sound quality. This has resulted in capacitors being used from 6 different boutique companies such as Solen, Nichicon, Wima, Elna, Kyocera and Epcos. Avantone worked with many of these companies to manufacture custom capacitors just for the BV-1 mkII, as only the very best would deliver our sonic quality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe BV-1 mkII also features a custom Cinemag output transformer designed for this microphone, as well as a handpicked edge-terminated 34mm CK12-style capsule. The culmination of these components led to a design that has huge bottom- end, and smooth yet airy top-end. The proximity effect lends itself to a massive sound that can add body and a sense of presence to any vocals. Though the original BV-1 remains a top contender as a world-class vocal mic, the expanded veratility of the BV-1 mkII also makes for a top choice for use with percussion, piano, mandolin, brass, winds, and even guitar cabinets. The BV-1 mkII is ready for anything. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTube Type\u003c\/b\u003e: Select Low-Noise Russian 6072A\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePolar Pattern(s):\u003c\/b\u003e Variable Figure 8 through Cardiod and Omni.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCapsule\u003c\/b\u003e: Custom dual sided 34mm edge-terminated\u2028 gold-sputtered Mylar (6 micron)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrequency Response\u003c\/b\u003e: 25Hz-20KHz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eOutput Impedance\u003c\/b\u003e: \u0026lt;200 Ohms \/ transformer isolated\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSensitivity\u003c\/b\u003e: -35dBV\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eS\/N Ratio\u003c\/b\u003e: 78dB (Ref. 1Pa A-weighted)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNoise Floor\u003c\/b\u003e: \u0026lt; 17 dBA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaximum SPL\u003c\/b\u003e: 134dB (0.5% THD @1000Hz) 144dB with pad engaged\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eEquivalent Noise Floor\u003c\/b\u003e: \u0026lt;18dB (A-weighted IEC 268-4)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eOutput Connector\u003c\/b\u003e: Male XLR 7 pin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHigh-Pass Switch\u003c\/b\u003e: 80 Hz 6dB\/octave Switch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAttenuation Switch\u003c\/b\u003e: -10dB Switch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePower Requirement\u003c\/b\u003e: 90Vac-220Vac\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eIncluded Accessories\u003c\/b\u003e: Power Supply, Padded Wooden Mic Box,Shockmount, Road Case.","brand":"Avantone Pro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40084386742407,"sku":"BV-1MKII","price":1575.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0343\/4368\/2183\/products\/avantone-pro-pro-audio-microphones-avantone-pro-bv-1-mkii-large-diaphragm-tube-condenser-microphone-bv-1mkii-29709069779079.jpg?v=1663361057","url":"https:\/\/www.chicagomusicexchange.com\/en-ca\/products\/avantone-pro-bv-1-mkii-large-diaphragm-tube-condenser-1585489","provider":"Chicago Music Exchange","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
