Classic II

Top-of-the-line Dual 1" Condenser Studio Valve Microphone

The Classic II is RØDE's top-of-the-line studio condenser microphone. Classic by name and classic by nature. Featuring a custom spec 1" dual diaphragm capsule feeding a vintage twin triode (New old stock) GE JAN-6072 valve and custom Jensen output transformer.

The result? Classic warmth and richness on both vocals and acoustic instruments. Nine polar patterns, variable PAD and filter. Shock mount. Machined from solid brass, the body is hand-polished, glass bead-blasted and coated in satin nickel. Also included is a double-shielded oxygen-free 30' copper cable with heavy-duty plugs and sockets, power supply, a suspension shock mount, stand mount, thread adaptor and sturdy aluminium flight case.

K2

Precision Variable Pattern Dual 1” Condenser Valve Microphone

The RØDE K2 is the result of designing and building 1000's of valve microphones.

The K2's HF-1 capsule is the pinnacle of transducer technology. The sound quality combines modern high-end specifications with the character and subtleties of the legendary 50's mics. Infinitely variable control of the K2's polar patterns provides the freedom and flexibility to excel in any recording situation. The K2 is another example of RØDE's commitment to building quality studio microphones to meet the exacting standards demanded by today's professionals.

At the 2004 Frankfurt Music Messa, 56 of the most prestgious music industry magazines voted the K2 the "Best Studio Microphone of 2004"
