Neumann U 67 Set Large Diaphragm Multipattern Tube Condenser Microphone Reissue – 1 of 2

Description

1 of 2 available.

For sale here is a very nice, well cared for, lightly used Neumann U67 Set, complete with the original case, power supply, cable, and Z48 shockmount. This U67 set is in excellent and correct working condition, with no operational faults or flaws of any kind: it sounds amazing and works exactly as it should. Cosmetically it is in excellent condition; there are some very small imperfections, consistent with careful handling and professional studio use. Two cosmetic flaws on the power supply are worth additional mention: one handle bracket on the power supply has a bit of oxidation; this is clear in one of the photos. There’s also a tiny dent in the top plate of the power supply; I tried to photograph this too but it’s minor enough that I couldn’t really get it to read in the photo.

This U67 set is sold in good faith, as described here, but otherwise as-is. Please ask questions if you have any and thanks for looking.
