Avantone Pro BV-1 mkII is a new version Large-diaphragm Tube Condenser Microphone.

The BV-1 mkII is a tube-driven, large-diaphragm condenser microphone; it’s predecessor has become an indispensable element in world-
renowned studios and home set ups alike, due to an unheard-of combination of quality, durability, and value. The development of
the BV-1 mkII was a “spare-no-expense” approach to microphone design — every single component was chosen for its sound quality.

This has resulted in capacitors being used from 6 different boutique companies such as Solen, Nichicon, Wima, Elna, Kyocera and Epcos.
Avantone Pro worked with many of these companies to manufacture custom capacitors just for the BV-1 mkII, as only the very best would
deliver Avantone Pro sonic quality.
