JJ Audio Akita (Sony c800g clone)

JJ Audio Akita – Sony C800G-Style Tube Microphone
(Hand-built C800G recreation with PSU, new tubes, and service check)

The JJ Audio Akita is one of the most accurate and respected boutique interpretations of the Sony C800G, built by JJ Audio in the USA.
Known for its open, polished top end and clean, present midrange, the Akita delivers that unmistakable “modern pop vocal” tone — detailed, airy, and effortlessly mix-ready.

Unlike mass-produced clones, JJ Audio’s design stays true to the C800G’s signal topology, using a carefully tuned high-voltage tube circuit and premium components for extremely low self-noise and extended frequency response.

Condition
Excellent condition overall. Lightly used in a smoke-free studio. The mic has been fully serviced prior to sale, including PSU recap and voltage stabilisation to ensure long-term reliability.
Tubes have been recently replaced and tested. The mic performs beautifully with rich harmonic detail and a smooth, articulate top end.
