The AEA NUVO Stereo Kit Case puts everything in one place: a custom SKB hard case with CNC-cut foam houses two NUVO microphones plus every component needed for Blumlein or near-coincident recording on a single stand. The kit was designed at the direct request of engineer John Kurlander — whose credits include the Beatles' later catalogue, the Lord of the Rings film scores, and Skyrim — a person who understands what a fast, reliable stereo setup actually requires on a working session.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBlumlein and Near-Coincident Without the Guesswork\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SMS Stereo Bar positions two NUVO microphones at any angle from 0° to 180° on one stand — classic Blumlein at 90°, near-coincident spreads, or Mid-Side with a cardioid and a figure-eight. The NUVO Coupler clips two microphones head-to-head for true Blumlein alignment: both capsules on the same vertical axis, zero inter-channel phase offset at a centred source. Thumb screws lock position in a single move without tools. Two Windtech windscreens protect the aluminium ribbon elements during outdoor sessions, live performances, and any situation where air movement is a concern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Case as a Working System\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SKB case is not a shipping box — it is a road-grade hard case with spring latches and CNC-cut foam that holds every component in a fixed position. Two NUVO microphones (N22 or N8), the SMS bar, the coupler, windscreens, and mounting hardware all fit without play or improvised padding. On a location session — a church, a film scoring stage, an outdoor festival — the entire rig comes out in a predetermined sequence and nothing gets left behind. The case dimensions fit in a standard aircraft overhead bin, which for engineers doing live remote recording translates directly into fewer checked bags and fewer transit risks to the ribbon elements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKB hard case\u003c\/strong\u003e — road-grade construction with CNC-cut foam, spring latches, carry-on compatible dimensions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSMS Stereo Bar\u003c\/strong\u003e — 0–180° angle adjustment, supports Blumlein, near-coincident, and M-S configurations on a single stand.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNUVO Blumlein Coupler\u003c\/strong\u003e — head-to-head mic alignment for precise Blumlein, zero phase offset at centre source.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 × Windtech windscreen\u003c\/strong\u003e — ribbon protection for outdoor and live-stage use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e — fits AEA N22 and N8 (microphones not included in the Case and Parts Only version).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesigned by John Kurlander\u003c\/strong\u003e — engineer behind Beatles, Lord of the Rings, and Skyrim recordings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKit contents (Case and Parts Only):\u003c\/strong\u003e SKB hard case, SMS Stereo Bar, NUVO Blumlein Coupler, 2 × Windtech windscreen, mounting hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMicrophones:\u003c\/strong\u003e not included (compatible: AEA N22, AEA N8)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase type:\u003c\/strong\u003e SKB hard case with CNC-cut foam interior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSupported stereo techniques:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blumlein (90°), near-coincident, Mid-Side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSMS bar mount thread:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5\/8\" standard microphone stand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of manufacture:\u003c\/strong\u003e USA (Pasadena, CA)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 year parts and labour; 3 years with product registration within 90 days of purchase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"AEA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54069051031889,"sku":"50949","price":348.78,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/AEANUVOSeriesStereoKitCase.jpg?v=1781521006","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/de\/products\/aea-nuvo-series-stereo-kit-case","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
