We collect old microphones!

It all started by some coincidence and became sort of habitual. Because not all of you can visit us in our studio, we decided to show off our ‘old mics stuff’ on the internet. Most of them aren’t fit for recording, but look perfectly on a shelf; however, some models are still pretty much usable. Our collection is far from being complete. There are loads of mics out there in the world and in Poland, about which we can only dream of. We hope that with time, our dream will come true :)

New microphone! UNITRA TONSIL MDU29

And here's another microphone from the Unitra Tonsil shelf, this time it's the dynamic model MDU 29. Very popular on Polish stages, the king of community centers :) From now on, it's featured on oldmics.pl.

New microphone! A. LISIŃSKI TARNÓW

Are you familiar with Polish brand of microphones A. Lisiński from Tarnów? Exactly. This particular model had a really short production line – only 55 copies were made. Our piece came to our collection right from a foundry garbage sorting line. That explains its far-from-perfect condition. Maybe someday we’ll make it up’n’running.

New microphone! PHILIPS EV 7011/21/NO

Another dynamic microphone with a familiar shape. We already have similar models branded as Hornyphone, Uher, and AKG in our collection. Now this beautifully preserved Philips joins them.

New microphone! UHER M942

This is not your everyday set from the Uher brand. What intrigues us the most is what the plastic element with rubber bands in this whole set was for. We have no idea. Do you?

New microphone! LEM 409

French microphones are, unfortunately, a rarity in our collection. Therefore, we are especially pleased with this excellently preserved LEM specimen. We hope that, over time, we will acquire more pieces from across the Seine.

New microphone! AKG D 707C

At first glance, it looks quite worn out. The lettering is worn off, it's slightly tarnished, and the foam under the grille is crumbling. But technically, it's an excellent microphone, proving with its sound that AKG products endure years of use very patiently.

New microphone! UNKNOWN

Could this be a prop from the Amazon series "Fallout"? It would certainly fit in any steampunk production. We know nothing about this piece. The only clue is "1943" on the plug. Help us out.

New microphone! UHER M645

Unbeknownst to us, the Usher brand did not gain as much popularity as competing German companies. And yet, they released several cool products. Today's microphone is quite a rare specimen and an underdog. However, the brand always maintains quality.

New microphone! OKTAWA MD-44

Have you ever seen a microphone on a stand with suction cups? Neither have we. That's why we were particularly excited about this Russian Oktava from 1969. Unfortunately, the base is damaged and has been temporarily set up just for the photo.

New microphone! PIEZO MX 4 Orange

We already have three such models produced by the Piezoelektronika cooperative in Tychy, and now a fourth one has joined. They differ only in color. There were eight colors in the palette. Simple conclusion, we are halfway to completing the set.
