Luke Audio has added the Gold Standard Series to their current line of microphones and unique capsules. The new Gold Standard AL-Y56-G large diaphragm, tube condenser, “bottle” microphone provides a more affordable alternative compared to Luke’s hand-built Platinum Series. The AL-Y56-G microphone package comes with three distinctly voiced, interchangeable capsules (A1AU, A2AU, A3AU). Each capsule is a unique reproduction with 3 micron mylar diaphragms, gold sputtered and hand tuned.
Luke Audio founder Allen Luke commented, “Compared to the platinum capsules, the gold sputtered capsules have a slightly slower transient response resulting in a smoother more ‘natural’ sound - but still in the same realm of sonic goodness as each capsules Platinum counterpart.” Audio examples are available for evaluation on www.lukeaudiollc.com.
All the capsules for both the Premium Platinum and the Gold Standard Series (exchangeable with the Y56 body) will be available individually.
