V17 ranked among the Top 5 microphones

“With patented TransHarmonic technology on board, the German maker’s V17 condenser mic combines the characteristic warm coloration of tubes with the precision benefits of transistors (like low noise, extended dynamic range, and greater resolution).

Give it a gold-sputtered, edge-terminated capsule with a fixed cardioid pattern, and a frequency response that covers the whole spectrum of human hearing, and we’re gold. We can see the V17 becoming the next “made in Germany” hit microphone in the months ahead.”
