Neumann KK56 #4843 Nickel Capsule original tested by Thiersch

A rare dual-diaphragm nickel capsule built for the iconic KM56 tube mic, the Neumann KK56 delivers silky top-end and natural detail with three switchable patterns: omni, cardioid, and figure-8.

Using a stacked pair of KK54 elements in a compact 21mm body, this capsule was engineered for precision and versatility in critical recording applications.

This original nickel capsule has been tested by Thiersh and is in exceptional condition. Fit for Neumann KM 56, KM 256 and other Neumann mics.
