Notes: LDC (large-diaphragm condenser), 26mm capsule. Page describes it as ETL's 'newest' model at an 'introductory price,' implying a recent launch, but no explicit year-introduced date is published on the page, so year_intro left blank (blanks over guesses). Handmade, steampunk-adjacent all-brass mid-century build typical of the brand. Noise floor 14 dBA (extra spec beyond requested fields, kept out of schema). Country of manufacture: page states 'hand-built in Oregon workshop'; other ETL pages and the company FAQ ('American-made like our mics') corroborate USA/Portland, OR manufacture. Frequency response and max SPL not given as text on the page (only referenced via a separate plot/PDF not captured) - left blank. Price is current site list price in USD.
