This microphone by ADK is a work of art in the form of
recording gear. ADK was started by the collaborative efforts of sound
engineers, a PhD in Physics, and a determination to craft some of the finest
audio microphones in the world by studying 40 years of microphone technology to
engineer the best quality sound you can possibly achieve in the recording studio.
The Frankfurt 49T boasts premium components, including a
British Oxford Transformer and a $6 resistor- impressive considering most
resistors only cost a few cents. A Two-way HP filter allows you to adjust the
dynamic quality of the sound you are getting. This microphone particularly emphasizes
smooth, strong highs with a rich mid and low end. On top of all this mic can
give you performance-wise, it is also beautifully made. This microphone by ADK
has the potential to be the nicest mic you’ve ever had the chance to own.
