The Essential Set includes the microphone, external PSU, 7-pin XLR cable, and a soft transport pouch. The large quick-release shockmount, magnetic pop filter, and mil-spec hard case are exclusive to the Studio Set. Winner of the Sound on Sound 2024 Best Microphone award.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eTube Character Without the Noise Floor Penalty\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eVintage-style tube microphones typically deliver self-noise from 12 dB(A) upward – audible in the signal chain when heavy compression or dense vocal layering is involved. PURE TUBE addresses this by removing semiconductors and capacitors from the audio path entirely: the tube is the sole active element in the signal chain. The result is 7 dB(A) self-noise – a figure virtually no other tube microphone on the market matches and one that rivals only the quietest solid-state condensers. This makes the PURE TUBE viable where tube mics are normally ruled out: dense vocal stacking, heavily compressed productions, and sessions with quieter or more dynamic vocalists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA built-in transformer-based filter compensates for proximity effect, managing low-frequency build-up at close working distances without corrective EQ in post. The frequency response is quasi-linear with subtle lift around 3.5 kHz and 10 kHz, reinforcing vocal presence and air naturally. The external PSU operates on both 110 V and 230 V globally and requires a 30-second warm-up after power-on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eEssential Set – What's Included and What's Not\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe Essential Set is the right entry point if you already own a compatible large-diameter shockmount and a standard gooseneck pop filter. It ships with a basic mic mount, the PSU, and the 7-pin XLR cable – enough to plug in and record immediately. If you need the fully integrated mounting system with the magnetic pop filter and the hard transport case, the Studio Set is the version to choose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eHand-selected 12AU7\/ECC82 tube – the sole active element in the audio signal path\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNo semiconductors or capacitors in the signal chain – tube character only\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSelf-noise: 7 dB(A) – exceptional for any tube microphone\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e1\" true condenser capsule, 3 µm gold-sputtered Mylar diaphragm, 25.4 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePolar pattern: cardioid\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eBuilt-in transformer-based filter compensating for proximity effect\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSubtle presence lift around 3.5 kHz and 10 kHz for vocal recordings\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eExternal PSU with global voltage range (110\/230 V)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eIncludes: microphone mount, 7-pin XLR cable, soft transport pouch\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e10-year manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eTransducer type: condenser, externally polarized\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eOperating principle: pressure gradient transducer\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDiaphragm: 3 µm gold-sputtered Mylar, 25.4 mm (1\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePolar pattern: cardioid\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eFrequency range: 20 Hz – 20,000 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSensitivity: 28.2 mV\/Pa (–31 dBV\/Pa)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSelf-noise: 7 dB(A)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaximum SPL: 132 dBSPL\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSignal-to-noise ratio: 87 dB(A)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDynamic range: 125 dB(A)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePSU supply voltage: 230 V \/ 50 Hz or 110 V \/ 60 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eConnector: 7-pin XLR\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eEnclosure: zinc die cast\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMicrophone dimensions: 196 × 65 × 45 mm (7.7 × 2.6 × 1.8\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMicrophone weight: 692 g (24.41 oz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"LEWITT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53446342377809,"sku":"59305","price":949.34,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/LEWITTPURETUBE-Essentialset1.jpg?v=1775468669","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/de-fr\/products\/lewitt-pure-tube-essential-set","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
