Neumann U87AiRode: Classic By Name, Classic By Nature
Strictly limited to 500 units worldwide, these are finest (and the final) RØDE Classic II's that will be produced. Finished in black and gold, shipped in hard case with a range of custom accessories and personally-engraved Lifetime Warranty plates, these are mics to be treasured. The price? Just the same as a normal Classic II.
The release of this microphone coincides with RØDE's decision to retire the RØDE Classic lineage, following a celebrated 15 years as the Australian microphone manufacturer's flagship model.
This new limited edition Classic II microphone is the most exclusive offering that RØDE has ever presented - only 500 microphones will be crafted, and then the RØDE Classic badge will be retired into audio history.
At the heart of the microphones' 'classic sound' is the 6072 twin triode valve, as found in most of history's most revered transducers. The transformer, custom designed by Jensen to perfectly match the 6072, pairs with the valve to provide the signature classic warmth.
The Classic II capsule is a dual pressure gradient transducer, sputtered with pure gold. The microphone body is machined from solid brass and polished by hand before coating with stain nickel.
A second of the extremely rare 6072 twin triode tube is supplied in a custom made, etched aluminium storage cylinder to ensure that this microphone's classic sound will last for many years to come. A leather bound embossed collector's coffee table book documents the history of RØDE's flagship microphone.
RØDE's reputation of providing outstanding product support and warranty is exemplified in the microphone's lifetime warranty. Upon online registration the owner will receive a fully personalised titanium warranty card featuring their name and the serial number of their microphone.
The microphone's aluminium case and power transformer are also finished in black, and marked with the commemorative logo. The included 10m cable features double-shielded, oxygen free copper wiring with heavy duty plugs and sockets. A suspension shock mount and stand mount are also included to complete the package.
