We are offering a Neumann SM69 fet stereo microphone from the 1970s, including the original power supply and cable. The microphone has been tested in our workshop and in the studio and works perfectly. The SM 69 FET condenser stereo microphone is a remotely switchable studio microphone for stereo recordings. It consists of the amplifier section, which contains two independent microphone amplifiers with particularly low inherent noise, and the capsule head with two separate, independent microphone capsules. In principle, the SM69 fet is two independent microphones which have been installed in a common housing. As the successor to the famous Neumann SM69 tube microphone, the SM69 fet has the same options, but due to the transistor technology it sounds a little different. It has a little less noise and sounds more high-end and open than the somewhat warmer and more mid-range SM69 in tube technology.
Technical details:
Each capsule system consists of two fixed electrodes, drilled and screwed together, and two gold-evaporating membranes made of heat-resistant polyester. Each of the two capsule halves of a capsule system has a cardioid characteristic. By applying appropriate polarization voltages to the center electrode and the membrane, the three directional characteristics "omnidirectional", "cardioid" and "figure of eight" result. They can be set for both trolley systems independently of each other using the power supply unit. The upper capsule can be rotated 270° against the lower one. The speaking direction is perpendicular to the microphone axis. It is indicated by the logo for the lower capsule and by a mark on the basket for the upper one. Each capsule is assigned its own amplifier. What is shown in the pictures will be delivered.
