I'm curious to know what MJ thinks about the MXL V77, and if there's anything to 'improve' it (mic/power suppl)?!

I believe it's one of the first tube mics MXL sold, it's much older than the current line and expensive. At that time it was like us$699 MSRP but could be found (and I got) for us$399.

I used it mostly for vocals but I don't use it often these days... I remember it sounded really nice, with body, not 'cheap' at all, but a bit noisy for me. And tube was not China (although I believe mic is China?!) - it's "Ruby" ?!(sic?)

What design is this mic based on?


all the best,
ave.
