FOR SALE

NEUMANN U47 ( early short body )

100% working

99% original ( read comments )

With modern Leo Schaal PSU and cable ( original cable available for 985,- extra, not for sale separately)

With original (mint) Telefunken VF14 tube
This is a “non M stamped version” but it has equal or even better noise / sound specs then the two “M versions” I own, PLEASE NOTE that the “M stamped” versions in a lot of cases are exactly the same as the ones without this stamp.... the “M” just means that Neumann ( not Telefunken) had tested and approved that particular tube in a microphone… they absolutely didn’t test ALL VF14‘s Telefunken made, just a batch they picked, in other words, there are a lot of “non M” VF14’s out there with the same specs as the “M” version….

Original Microtech Gefell M7 capsule ( the same capsule as a Neumann M7 capsule) absolutely NOT a re-issue or a re-skin! In absolutely fantastic condition! Sounds much warmer and fuller then a re-skinned M7 or any other substitute ( re-issue or clone )

Lovely original ( not Neumann but professional and period-correct ) wooden box from a 50’s Italian broadcast / tv company mobile truck.

The sound is TO DIE FOR!!! it’s all you would want from a U47, the spectrum go’s from a fat and heavy “wooden” low end, up to an angelic and airy high end, with lush and organic mid’s… to curling, jaw dropping, mind boggling etc. etc. etc.

It clearly has been used, and the connector was repaired a very long time ago in a “work horse manner” ( but solid for eternity ) but next to the fact that it has a lot of character, the “body wear” could easily be polished/ restored if one would be so inclined..
