NEUMANN KM56c Vintage (very early serial) all original kit

Hi reverbers,

Another gem up for grab, this time is a Neumann KM56C microphone all original kit (very early serial #108!!!)

This one is a fantastic sounding exemple, it's a monster little mic no joke. We hear often that the KM56 was design as a smaller version of Neumann U47 using more compact technology and components, but this one honestly sound nearly just as big as U47 (cant say that for all of them).

Description of this KM56: Double nickel membrane in wonderful condition, AC701K tube, BV13 transformer = happiness and succes.

In case you didn't know already, "C" in name means "cathode bias" so 4db less noise in signal which is the best version of the KM serie.

This kit includes:

-Neumann KM56C all original (serial #108) 

with rare chrome top head

-Neumann Original vintage KM56 blue case

-Neumann original NKM PSU in really good condition

- Kleine tuchel KM56 cable (brand new from Schall). I can exchange for Belden vintage one for additional 100€.

-3 pin tuchel to XLR output cable 

- PSU original cable

This microphone sounds honestly so good, I'm reluctant to sale it but I have to fund a renovation of my studio + new speakers.... but this is a great one that I have kept for many years and use on several records.

I have more gear for sale, i will gradually upload some adds when i have time. If your looking for something specific, you can always write me i might have it and maybe for sale (Vintage neve, urei, telefunken stuff, other Neumann, parts, rare tubes etc). 

Take care and dont hesitate to write if there is anything. I'm travelling quite a bit for concerts so depending on where you are we might be able to meet in person (Swiss, France, Italy, Germany)
