These are exciting times. The most perfect microphone ever made has all comers stepping up to the plate to allow a tremendous number of reissues with the aim being to improve sound capture for everyone Agreed!

Hi, I don't have a list but I think most of the mic bodies from the popular suppliers are ok. I would like to mention the manufacturers but I can't as they want to keep me as the supplier to themselves and don't give me any mention or credit on their websites - shame really but I guess they have their reasons. I've attached a couple of photos of the transformer in different mic bodies. Shown is one of the test mics used to test the transformer.

After over 6 months of development and testing I'd like to introduce the FAB T14X transformer. This will bring out the full potential of the ELA M251 or C12 style microphones and give you that beautiful rich sound you are looking for. It is larger than the original T14 but will fit most mic bodies. Already in use by 2 microphone manufacturers it is now available to buy at fabmicrophones.com

Knipex do a good range but they are quite expensive. Don't know if they are available in all countries.

Hi Chad No different order this time - this is a photo showing the set up we used to record everything with the 2 Neumanns facing each other and the FAB to one side.

Thanks for that. We will reveal the answers after a few weeks. I should have asked this initially in the post - did you have a favourite order?

I actually have, within the last year. I'm pretty certain it was a thread over at PRW and may have concerned this very mic, as I seem to recall something about a TAB transformer.
EDIT: I just checked - yes, it was PRW.
Yes this is the guy who bought my FAB V11 transformer.

Nor I.
At first I thought maybe it was used flush mounted to a table for conferences or onto a wall for additional sound reinforcement but I don't think that is the case. Certainly an unusual design.

In tribute to the great American ribbon microphones made by RCA and Harry Olsen. The FAB USA is a new high output transformer with very low primary dcr. The USA is the most efficient and highest output ribbon microphone transformer FAB has made. This is a LIMITED EDITION of 100 and each is marked with a serial number. To buy visit ebay or pm me here or at www.fabmicrophones.com

Sorry should have said these were a couple of Neumann U67's not 87's. We just did this for comparison.

We were lucky enough to have two originals to do some comparison tests.
