hey there, is it still available?

Send me a PM I’m interested

I have one of these mod kits fitted inside an original U67 body with original capsule. I’ve been suffering intermittent radio frequency interference, it sounds like a TV show. It’s very quiet, but say if I’m doing a vocal take in a sparsely arranged song, the level riding / compression would cause it to be a problem. Separate to this I’ve also been getting wandering frequency oscillation, like a fly buzzing around a theramin, this is quite loud and particularly present shortly after turning the mic on. Anyone have an idea where I can start to correct all this!? Generally I’ll turn the mic off, pull and reseat the valve and this may solve one or both of the problems. I got a second valve for the mic, a modern Mullard, but as it doesn’t come close to the sound of the Telefunken it’s not really seen much action and I’ve just been running the gauntlet each time I track.

It sounds like the tube is heading towards being microphonic, and probably needs replacing.

Has anyone tried the Tubelife u67 power supply with their MK67 mod? It would be really convenient to have the PSU racked in my studio and out of the way but one oddity I noticed is, the website only indicates a 6-pin connector rather than a 7-pin connector... and only 5 of the 6 pins connected!

That does not describe a microphonic tube per se. Replacing may indeed be the answer though.

I just picked up a TLM67 and would love some info on the MK mod. A link perhaps?

Sorry if this has been covered.

hi could I get a recap on this, with what you did and replaced?

transformer - exchanged for neumann bv12? (where did you source the transformer and did you replace the transformer yourself?

tube?

cable?

PSU? this was the last component you changed right?

cheers! very interested.

anyone else can chime in on sourcing the neumann transformer?

See the very first post on this thread.

Introducing the fabolous TLM67/U87 to U67 mod

My MK67 mod was delivered last week. This thing really is a work of art, irrespective of how it sounds. I'm looking forward to giving it a spin!

Did you get a chance to test it?

Has anyone had any luck implementing the MK67 with a Neumann swivel mount connector?

Hello,
Is there anyone who owns this mike, has the mod, and is currently co spidering selling it as a lightly used piece?
Preferably within the EU. (I'm not far from Vienna where these are made)

Thanks,
GG

I think we should all respect the wishes of the guy making the mod possible for all of us and make a new thread

Quick update:
20 pcs left from the current batch, will have to raise prices for the next batch.

Max

What the price? I live in the USA.

Pricing and info can be found in the first post.

How much will the increase be as it has not changed on the first page unless I'm mistaken?

I have a Neumann tlm 67 for $1400 if anyone is interested. It’s like new condition.

I've got an extra U87Ai body and headbasket (including K87 capsule) in mint condition if anyone is interested!

Looking to buy another max mod. Seeking one with a Neumann transformer already put in. Let me know!

10 pieces left.

Currently shipping to the US takes a little longer due customs.

has anyone got any experience with neumprospares.co.uk?

also, I'm struggling to find anyone in the UK who will do the transformer swap. martin gathard has now retired, and funky junk (dave) is saying they can't do it. anyone got any suggestions?

Stewart Tavener at Xaudia?
a transformer swap is not rocket science (if you have the parts already)..



Cheu

thanks for this suggestion. i've been in touch with stewart and he can do it.

any feedback or experience with neumprospares.co.uk anyone?

Sold out - thank you guys!

Some potential buyers backed out, so I have some 5 pcs available - pls check first post.

got my mod arriving in a few days, trying to buy a sommer octave cable. do I need to check the wiring of the pins is right on the cable? one of the sellers asks for the mic it will be used with, so I'm guessing some mics require different pin wiring. is a standard 7 pin sommer tube cable gonna be correct for the 67?

still trying to find a mic tech here in the UK for meumann stuff so would welcome any further suggestions. martin has retired. funky junk don't want to work on an mk67 for some reason.

It has been clarified, in the previous pages, that the mk67 works with the K870/K67 capsules.
Is it possible to know what modifications need to be made to make a K67 capsule work on a MK67, please?
Has anyone tried an original capsule?
