This Awesome Ribbon Mic Won't Be Robbin' Your Wallet!

Want to sound cool? Better yet, do you want to LOOK cool when you're tracking vocals and instruments in the studio? Heck, yeah! But, seriously, do you want to get classic, smooth ribbon tones, in a retro-styled mic that's not gonna break the bank? Then you need Avantone's CR-14! This dual-ribbon mic gives you killer looks, awesome sound, and the kind of high SPL handling that will stand up to vocals, drum kits, loud amps, and more. The CR-14 is built out of primo stuff, so it'll be a big part of your studio arsenal for a long time to come!
