Notes: "Accurate reproduction of the original" Neumann M49; site copy for the standard CM49 (separate product) states it has been discontinued and replaced by this CM49LE model - CM49LE treated as the current/in-scope M49-style model; the older CM49 was excluded from this catalog as explicitly marked DISCONTINUED on its own page.
