■Comments: The GEMINI was the first dual-tube condenser microphone in microphone history, and the Gemini II is its successor. It features a dual-valve design with a 12AX7 vacuum tube in the input stage and a 12AU7 vacuum tube in the output stage. It delivers rich, deep sound detail comparable to vintage vacuum tube microphones, yet maintains a quality that blends seamlessly with modern solid-state microphones. Equipped with a 10dB PAD switch and low-cut filter, it ensures smooth recording. The dedicated power supply is handmade with aluminum and a brushed finish. The Gemini II also boasts an improved signal-to-noise ratio.
