Details

I/O: XLR (multi-pin mic cable to dedicated PSU, then balanced XLR line output from PSU)

Notes: TUBE condenser (not FET) — flagged since most Roswell mics are FET; Aztec is the boutique tube/multipattern flagship, explicitly designed to emulate the Telefunken ElaM 251. Requires included regulated external power supply (not standard 48V phantom). $2,999 is the listed sale price; regular price $3,299 per page at time of research. Dimensions 240x44mm, weight 800g (mic only). Country of manufacture not explicitly stated on page (other Roswell mics say California; left blank here per no-guess rule). Max SPL and sensitivity not published on page.
