Its hand-crafted, true condenser capsule utilises an ultra-thin three-micron gold-sputtered diaphragm for superior transient response. Designed to reproduce low frequencies with stunning accuracy, the BL8 is perfect in combination with our V KICK, but can also be used alone without an additional outer kick drum mic. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BL8 utilises transformerless Class-A circuitry to ensure plentiful headroom without distortion, while its low-noise electronics deliver transparency and clarity.
