developed according to the specifications of the BBC
classic for recording acoustic instruments, orchestra, vocals and hand percussion
very linear frequency response, highest impulse fidelity
connector: 3-pin swivel
incl. Coles 4069 XLR adapter (microphone spider or holder required)
very low input sensitivity - an appropriate Preamp is required
for safe operation a Coles 4071 or 4072 stand mount is strongly recommended - the microphone is very heavy!
As the repair costs are very high, we advise you in your own interest to pay very close attention that the phantom power is always deactivated on this microphone. This can cause serious damage to the microphone.
The Coles 4038 is the first choice when it comes to high-quality ribbon microphones with wide, linear frequency response and high signal fidelity. Thanks to their reliability, Coles microphones are used in broadcast and studio applications by top producers and broadcasters such as the BBC.
