> good performance they decided utilizing the 2 micron ribbon just put the
performance over the top and went with it for this new amazing mic.

The All New SE R-1 completely smokes the Royer as well as all others and
here is the best part.

At half the price !!

The New SE has a list price of $ 749 and streets out @ $ 599

The special (St. Peter ) PARIS Pre-Launch group buy is $ 568.88

Included with this mic is a Planet waves Premium 20ft Mic Cable, Deluxe
Road case and shockmount.

We will be able to deliver these in the first week of October - Reserve
yours NOW !

As with all SE mics - there is a 7 day NO RISK full refund Guarantee !!

These Mics will Premier @ AES in a few weeks - My prediction is these
R-1's will be one of the Hottest
Items at the Show. You heard it here FIRST !

The Shiny box mics are made by the same guys that
do nady,rode,blue, marshall etc...

Shang Hai Filo makes them all - I know the nady is 6 microns
and we had for comparisons , while its a ribbon - it really
is not close in performance at all to the royer or SE.

From some folks right here.
SO the SE is more like a royer than and RCA?
Will you have clips of vocals recorded through em?
I was planning on a ribbon in the next week or so.

>Hi Martin,
My apology , please allow me to clarify. Shang Hai Filo makes
most lower end Chinese mics that include the names I mentioned
and many more. I'll have photo's of this facility online soon.
I'm not sure which Rode mics are made ( assembled ) there and which ones
are made by 797 Audio ( Studio Projects etc.. ),I'm sure their premium
mics are made in Australia as you found . I'll find out . Rode , like
many other companies assemble mics in various places due to labor costs
etc...

I saw the machining of the NT6 capsule as well as the NTG shotgun series and
also the NT-4 series.
They recently bought a MULTI million $$$ weapons grade milling machine from
Japan to manufacture capsules and the like.

$125.00 including shipping. Paypal add 3%.

thanks much.

jonHi Jim,

I guess US Post would be the simplest method. What payment method (bank
cheque, Paypal, direct deposit) would you prefer ? I've used direct deposit
in the past but it incurs a $25 transfer fee. Maybe PayPal would be best ?

In any case, let me know the total amount and I'll send you address
details. I'm in Sydney, Australia.

Cheers,

Stewart.
