bummer this thread was filled with more political issues and chinese manufacturing arguements...

but now that time has past:

someone in this thread asked if these mics are r-f-t or made in china?????
it seems they would be, considering that everything made by telefunken in the states costs a minimum of $8k.

as i'm sure these mics sound good and i have really been considering them.....

i am beginning to think they might be made by the manufacturer of the chameleon labs ts1, please someone correct my wandering intuition!!!!!!!

but the mics use the same tube from different brands and both come with a similar looking akg ck adapter, they look to be the same size.....

and if so i will save $2k and buy the chameleons....

if not, someone who knows please inform me.......

because they look like great mics, i'd just like to know a little more about them.
