The Roswell Delphos II Microphone provides the natural sound that we have come to love and expect from Roswell mics, but with a slightly richer, fuller sound. This makes the Delphos perfect for applications where you want a workhorse mic that provides a bit of a lively vibe.
The Roswell Delphos Microphone is a premium all-purpose studio condenser, featuring unhyped and natural frequency response, very high sensitivity, and very low self-noise.The Roswell Delphos uses a highly optimized transformerless circuit, which provides a pristine signal path. The microphone's circuit boards are manufactured and populated in the US, using the finest components sourced from around the world, including low-noise NOS transistors and imported European capacitors.The two switches located on the front of the microphone provide pattern control (Cardioid/Omni) and pad (-10dB).
Each Delphos is assembled in California, manually "burned in," and extensively tested after manufacturing to ensure the best possible performance. The microphone is painted in California with a 3-stage enamel finish. The color is dark blue metallic. The ROSWELL logo nameplate is embossed brass. Roswell has created a new shockmount for the Delphos. Its cut-away face allows the microphone to be easily positioned close to a singer or instrument without hardware standing in the way. This allows you to take advantage of the microphone's natural proximity effect.
