BASEMENT FIND !! 1950's RCA Ribbon Mic Found & Restored 

Man.. what a special video.

Really sounds great now!!!

Great video. Really cool!

I LOVE this story. The mic now sounds incredible!

Cool. Great story Joe. Great Mic from that period. Well worth the Restoration. Sounds Great....

great video great find, love it!

Cool! Remember that 1939 Shure Fat Boy I found that was a basement find? I love old mics!

Hope ya well Joe, shout out to Max too! Great work helping all the folk through the academy mate, congrats. Catch up! Ash

Really great video! Do you know if ENAK still working? I have the same mic that need repair.

I would like to hear this lady on vocals both male and female. Im looking at one right now

I have a bk 5b given to me by my uncle..I'm running it through a shure M67 then into my computer..the sound is faint and muffled..do I need a different pre amp with more volts or ohms?

I just looked at their website with the enthusiastic idea of sending them my RCA for resto. Their prices are an initial $65 just to put it on the bench, and $180 to re-ribbon. So there goes that idea. I'm in Australia too, with an exchange rate of AU$0.67, ouch. I'd hate to think what you'd have to pay now for paint and spare parts. You did extremely well, which is annoying.

The AEA KU5A was inspired by this

Great video and great mic! Random question but what lens are you using? The bokeh is gorgeous.

Next time avoid rever in the shootout

that is fantastic.
