I've been borrowing a Soundelux Elux 251 from a friend for a project with a female singer and we have fallen in love with the mic's sound. Unfortunately i cant get hold of the mic and need something similar this week to complete some other tracks with a similar sound. Does anyone have a suggestion of a similar valve (or perhaps not) mic with silky top end? I'm aware of the Korby capsules and of course the original Ela M251 but no one seems to rent them in the london area...
