Condenser Studio Valve Recording Microphone
The Classic II is RØDE’s top-of-the-line studio condenser microphone.
Classic by name and nature. Featuring a custom spec 1” dual diaphragm capsule feeding a vintage twin triode (New old stock) GE JAN-6072 valve and custom Jensen output transformer. The result?
Classic warmth and richness on both vocals and acoustic instruments.
