Cascade Microphones Knuckle Head Short Ribbon Mic with Lundahl LL2913 Transformer, Black and Silver
Cascade Microphones Knuckle Head Short Ribbon Mic with Lundahl LL2913 Transformer, Black and Silver
The Knuckle Head's shape and distressed copper finish evokes early broadcast microphones -- with the smooth, natural ribbon sound Cascade is known for. This version of the mic comes with the Lundahl LL2913 transformer.

The Knuckle Head with Lundahl LL2913 Transformer is a passive ribbon microphone that combines the acoustic components of the successful Fat Head ribbon with a shockmounted headbasket design reminiscent of early broadcast microphones.

The ribbon motor uses Neodymium magnets surrounding a 2.2-micron corrugated aluminum ribbon measuring 5mm x 45mm. The ribbon is mounted symmetrically within the magnetic gap, making the Knuckle Head suitable as the "mid" mic in a MS setup -- the front and back of the mic should produce the same sound.

The ribbon motor and headbasket are suspended within a 6-inch diameter metal hoop by eight springs. The output transformer is located within the cylindrical shaft below the shockmount hoop.
