Here's What Rode Say About the K2 Tube Condenser Mic

The RØDE K2 is a premium valve condenser microphone featuring dual 1” gold sputtered diaphragms. Infinitely variable control of the polar pattern from omnidirectional through cardioid and bidirectional/figure-8 provides the freedom and flexibility to excel in any recording situation.

High-performance specifications (including a maximum SPL of 162dB) are combined with the character and subtleties of the legendary mics of the 1950s to provide a microphone that not only provides world-class vocals but is perfectly at home recording a wide range of instruments both up-close or in a wider ‘room’ capacity. The RØDE K2 microphone is designed and made in Australia, and covered by RØDE Microphones' industry leading 10 year warranty.

In perfect condition and love the mic!

Mr Mohammed Jalal Hoque27th Dec 2018

You can't go wrong with a tube microphone, especially one made by Rode! It sounds great! And it gives the more high end mics a run for their money and I'm talking Neuman! Within the £1000 I can't think of a better microphone!

Beautifully engineered. Great on vocals, warm yet crisp. I'm very happy with it.
