Phantom C

Common name: Brauner Phantom C

Production Status: Discontinued / Vintage

The Phantom C was Brauner’s first large diaphragm FET condenser microphone. The design philosophy which works purely in cardioid characteristic, guarantees a sound quality otherwise found only in Bauner’s tube microphones. Its capsule is based on the ideal of the VM1 giving the Phantom C a very natural and pristine sound character. The circuitry is derived from the Brauner ASM5 surround microphone system and offers a minimum-component circuit design based around an ultra-low noise, high dynamic range super FET. Includes shock-mount, Swiss Vovox cable and aluminium carrying case.
