The MK 301 S capsule — designed and manufactured exclusively by Gefell — is the core of the microphone: an 18.6 mm element with a gold-sputtered polymer membrane, drawing on the capsule heritage that traces back to Georg Neumann's founding years in Gefell. A transformerless output maintains self-noise at 14 dBA with a sensitivity of -40 dB (10 mV\/Pa) and a maximum SPL of 142 dB. The compact dimensions (135 x 22 mm, 95 g) make the M300 unusually easy to position in tight spaces — drum overheads, piano, acoustic guitar, ensemble. The dark bronze finish distinguishes it visually from the satin nickel variant. Hand-built and individually measured in Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eMK 301 S capsule and transformerless electronics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe MK 301 S capsule is a Gefell design based on an 18.6 mm gold-sputtered polymer membrane — the small-diaphragm sibling of the capsule tradition from the Gefell facility, carrying forward the sonic philosophy of the company Georg Neumann founded in this town in 1928. The transformerless output circuit provides very low output impedance and minimizes phase distortion — relevant when summing stereo to mono or combining multiple microphones in complex setups. The frequency response from 40 Hz to 18 kHz carries a gentle presence rise around 7–12 kHz, adding natural clarity and openness without edginess. The polar pattern remains consistent and narrows appropriately at high frequencies — typical of a well-designed small-diaphragm cardioid, and particularly useful in close-mic multi-microphone configurations where mutual isolation is a priority. RFI susceptibility is very low. Internal elastic mounting of the capsule and electronics reduces mechanically transmitted vibration without a dedicated external spider.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eApplications and position in the Gefell line\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe M300 complements the large-diaphragm Gefell microphones in applications requiring precise positioning in small spaces or consistent multi-directional behavior in multi-microphone setups. Reviewers consistently note its natural, clean reproduction of acoustic guitar and acoustic instruments — without the exaggerated presence peaks typical of many competing small-diaphragm condensers. It pairs naturally with the M930 in complementary configurations: ribbon or LDC as the primary microphone, M300 as the close or spot microphone. The microphone ships with the MH 300 clip and a wooden case. Available in factory-matched stereo pairs for ORTF, X-Y, and Blumlein configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSmall-diaphragm cardioid condenser microphone, hand-built in Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMK 301 S capsule: 18.6 mm, gold-sputtered polymer membrane — designed and built exclusively by Gefell\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eTransformerless output — minimal phase distortion, low output impedance\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSelf-noise: 14 dBA\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaximum SPL: 142 dB at THD below 0.5%\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSensitivity: -40 dB (10 mV\/Pa)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eFrequency response: 40 Hz – 18 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eGentle 7–12 kHz presence rise — natural clarity without edginess\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eStable cardioid polar pattern, well-controlled high-frequency narrowing\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eVery low RFI susceptibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eInternal elastic mounting of capsule and electronics\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCompact dimensions 135 x 22 mm, 95 g — easy positioning in tight spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDark bronze finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAvailable in factory-matched stereo pairs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eIncluded: microphone, MH 300 clip, wooden case\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePower: 48V phantom\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAcoustic operating principle: condenser, transformerless\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePolar pattern: cardioid\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCapsule: MK 301 S, 18.6 mm, gold-sputtered polymer membrane\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eFrequency response: 40 Hz – 18 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSensitivity: -40 dB re. 1V\/Pa (10 mV\/Pa)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSelf-noise: 14 dBA (IEC 651)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaximum SPL: 142 dB at THD below 0.5%\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eOutput impedance: 50 ohms\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eRecommended load impedance: 1,000 ohms minimum\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePower: 48V phantom (IEC 268-15)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDimensions: 135 mm (L) x 22 mm (diameter)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eWeight: 95 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eFinish: dark bronze (alternative: satin nickel)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eIncluded: M300 microphone, MH 300 clip, wooden case\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Microtech Gefell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53745383899473,"sku":"58966","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/GefellM300darkbronze1.jpg?v=1778576659","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/fr\/products\/gefell-m300-dark-bronze","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
