The new Peluso P-47 SS is a large-diaphragm condenser microphone styled after the Neumann U47.
A solid-state gain stage replaces the U47’s steel vacuum tube with a FET, providing a significantly lower noise floor and cleaner sound overall. The P-47 SS’s wide dynamic range is as capable of capturing subtle intricate detail as it is a crisp loud kick drum. It handles transients with a very fast and detailed response – for guitar and vocal work.
The classic single back plate dual-diaphragm condenser capsule provides a unique bell shaped proximity effect. This can provide low-end enhancement, for enhancing for broadcast vocals. An onboard 75Hz roll-off filter will temper this proximity effect when not desired.
The Peluso P-47 SS comes as a complete package including the P-47 SS microphone in a velvet bag, suspension mount, clip mount and foam wind screen in a sturdy flight case.
