The Universal Audio Bock 251 Tube Microphone is a flagship large-diaphragm tube condenser mic, that provides the smooth, open and balanced tone of the iconic ELAM 251. The 251 voicing is not only stellar for vocals, but also a real studio workhorse for any sound source. Each Bock 251 is handmade in Santa Cruz, California, to the exacting specifications of world‑renowned mic designer David Bock.
The Universal Audio Bock 251 Tube Microphone is David Bock's loving interpretation of the classic 251 microphones he studied and maintained as chief technical engineer of the world's top recording studios for two decades. Handbuilt at UA’s Custom Shop in Santa Cruz, California, the UA Bock 251 mic puts "golden unit" sound at the heart of your recordings. The Bock mics are a beautiful coming together of an award winning industry brand with an equally awarded designer; it's a perfect combination and we are proud to have these available at Front End Audio!
