Looking for an authentic chambered c12 capsule for my 251 build. Heiserman and Tim Campbell are extremely busy, so what are some other options? Beesneez, OPR, Haun, Josephson. Is it even possible to get a haun or Josephson capsule?

What do you want, something that provides great quality or something NOW!!!
Me, I'd take the former.

The Josephson capsule is definitely more of an “inspired by” capsule than trying to fully recreate the CK12. But their stuff is quality. I believe a capsule is $7-$800

I have a josephson capsule in my BSA 251. Its nice enough. I like it more then my Bock 251 capsule.
I did have a Beesneez c12 and it sounded really nice. but alas it failed .
I have not used an opr yet. Still uncertian about that one.
I do like the Upton one.

Was just curious. However, even after many years of great use, I probably would have contacted him to let him know of the failure and find out the possibility of bringing it back to its former glory; especially if I was ecstatic with the sound. With that said, we all get distracted with the potential possibilities of sounds from other options out there.

Josephson has always said they don’t sell their capsules or anything else, outside their microphones as a whole… But I’ve gotten the impression over the years that there’s some hush hush going on to certain people. I’m not one of them or care to be, so I’ve never tried. Same goes for MBHO.

My experience with Beesneez (two capsules for U67 clones) has been very good.

Does anyone have any experience with Austrian Audio? Do they make their own capsules?

They make their own capsules, but don’t sell them separately. I use the OC818s in omni often, with great success on Leslie cabs, Rhodes, and guitar amps.
