The ADK Z2-47 Tube Microphone has a slightly dark (or softer) top end, with an electric upper mid-rage that really brings to life vocals and brass. The Sowter provides a creaminess to the mids, that compliments it's present, but rounded off low end. The ADK Z2-47 is great from Vocals, Trump, Sax, Cymbals, and more.
The ADK Z2-47 Tube Microphone offers that elusive warmth of the past that is flattering on male vocals (female vocalists often like, too). Think Frank, Ella, Nat King Cole. Introduced in 1949, U47 had a high noise floor and VF-14 replacement tubes sell in the $1000's, yet it is still one of the most sought-after mics. The Z2-47, like all Z-Mods, has exponentially better specs than it's homage mic. ADK's Golden-Ears picked a Sowter Transformer for the Z2-47 to give it a creamy mid-range.
