Details

Controls: 9-position polar pattern switch (on PS4 power supply): Omni, Cardioid, Figure-8, and transitional patterns between each

I/O: 7-pin XLR cable to external Miktek PS4 power supply; XLR mic-level output from PSU

Notes: Tube condenser (subminiature pentode vacuum tube), MK9 dual 1-inch capsule, custom US-made Miktek output transformer; ships with PS4 external power supply and 7-pin cable. FLAG: published sensitivity/max-SPL/noise figures are numerically identical to CV4's spec sheet -- confirmed against both the official CV3 owner's manual and the C V4 spec PDF, so this is not a transcription error, but the two models differ mainly by tube type (subminiature pentode on CV3 vs NOS Telefunken EF800 on CV4). Price not published on manufacturer site (dealer pricing) -- left blank.
