I put the Cinemag CM-13114 in my '251' and so far I'm pretty impressed. I got my NOS GE tubes from KCA NOS Tubes good service from them. Still waiting on a Tim Campbell capsule.

Great to know there are guys here who like to go fast. Elkhorn WI, Carlsbad and Saddleback, CA, road racing at Riverside and desert racing in Baja - fond memories of terrifying moments. I sold my last MX bike to buy my first Strat. Never regretted it. Playing music delivered a better high, more girls, and was easier on my body for sure. Sorry for hijacking the thread... Back to the microphones.

Hey Ward, I have not heard more about this in a long time so I assumed that it had been resolved. I have emailed you. Thanks Tim. Maybe another microphone expert might be able to speak to why a CK12 capsule won't work in a C414ULS?

Its coming together this is the last prototype of the grill i think, I hope Let me know how its looking. The ring on the bottom and the bar that separates it will be solder on. The bending and the forming is what was the hard part. Attachment Deleted Attachment Deleted Attachment Deletedi have no ideal why they rotated ?

Ok here is the last couple pcs. This is only a prototype, I sure as hell. Know why u don't see this type of grill on more Mics. The reason they are a pain in the ass. You think it would be easy but ooohhhh nnnooo. I'm going with a mesh that has slightly larger grid spacing should make forming them a little easier. Attachment Deleted. Attachment Deleted The solder will disappear when getting plated. I also need to have seams compressed more make it look more clean and flush This allowed me to get the tooling and fixture ready now 15 fregging more
