"After dealing with a variety of "Vintage" Microphones for years now I am not particularly interested in selling them (vintage mics) that much any longer. Although I will admit for many, many years the only microphones that sounded good were those "vintage mics." Despite all their problems and inconsistencies from mic to mic, even with the "butcher" mods you would run across from time to time, they were still fixable and could be restored close to their previous glory.

Currently there are a few "New" companies making microphones that I am confident in selling. Compared to the "vintage mics", I feel I can provide a better product at a fair price. These "new" microphones have the QUALITY of the "vintage" mics, CONSISTENCY the "vintage" mics haven't had in years and a beautiful thing called a WARRANTY that can only come with a NEW purchase. I am comfortable and confident in suppling these NEW mics as well as using them myself.

SOUNDELUX MICROPHONES in my opinion is at the forefront of these "new" companies. Soundelux provides Quality, Character and Value in their products. As well as innovative twists in new microphones like the recent ifet7 and the classic U195. It is also my opinion, as a manufacturer myself, most Soundelux Microphones are actually under priced for the Quality Parts, Craftsmanship and Labor that goes into them... (especially if you compare them against other competitors products). Soundelux Microphones are a "BIG BANG for the BUCK!"
