Telefunken ELA M 251

Countless hit records feature the legendary sound of the Telefunken ELA M 251.  Known for its' smooth, open, and airy tone, silky highs and  rich, detailed midrange, the Elam 251 creates a holographic sound with  plenty of weight and mojo. I typically pair our ELA M 251 with one of our Manley preamps but it is equally incredible through our Trident A Range, Neve 1073's  or any preamp you choose from our equipment list depending on the vibe you are after. 

The Sony 800G is renowned for stunning clarity and articulation. Our 800g was handmade by master audiophile, Josh Stam. I tested ours against an original 1990s Sony 800g here at the studio and the result was stellar - indistinguishable from the original.

Additionally, we offer vintage Neumann mics, premium ribbon mics as well as many boutique and dynamic mics. Every mic has it's own unique purpose, vibe and character.
