PELUSO P-49
Step into the realm of vintage richness and high-end smoothness with the Peluso P-49, a faithful recreation of the features that made the vintage M 49 legendary. Originating from 1949 to 1974, the M 49 left an indelible mark with its notable use on Miles Davis' trumpet and vocalists like Simon and Garfunkel and Barbara Streisand.
The Peluso P-49 pays homage to the M 49's legacy by incorporating the features that set it apart. The M 49 was a trailblazer as the first condenser microphone with remote pattern control, a feature retained in the P-49 with its remote indexed 9-pattern selector. The slanted relationship of the head grille to the capsule minimizes grille resonances, contributing to the microphone's unique design.
The miniature triode tube, specifically designed for microphone use, ensures longevity, low current consumption, and high input impedance. The meticulous development of the output transformer, despite its high cost and complexity, plays a crucial role in achieving the vintage '49 tonal quality.
