Telefunken ELA-M-260-MASTER-ST ELA-M-260 Stereo Set with 3 Matched Pair Interchangeable Capsules

The TELEFUNKEN Elektroakustik ELA M 260 has become a staple for use in a multitude of recording applications due to its natural presence and high level of detail and clarity, especially in acoustic and classical applications. Keeping this in mind, TELEFUNKEN Elektroakustik is now offering the ELA M 260 Master Stereo Set.

The matched Stereo Set comes in a custom locking flight case that carries both M860 cables, M761 shock mounts, microphones, American-made dual-channel M960S power supply unit. This newly designed power supply is fully regulated and will power one or both microphones simultaneously, and features a slow-ramping heater voltage to ensure vacuum tube longevity.

The ELA M 260 Master Stereo Set comes with three matched pairs of interchangeable capsules. The capsules are cardioid, omnidirectional, and hypercardioid allowing you to use the Master Set in any variety of combinations or applications. The interchangeable design makes the Stereo Set an extremely versitile and sound investment.

Stereo recording techniques include X/Y coincidental pairs with the microphones in cardioid, and A/B spaced pairs with either cardioid or omni-directional patterns. Using these techniques, or others, in conjunction with a pair of ELA M 260’s will result in an ideal recording set up for string sections, acoustic guitar, drum overheads, or as room microphones.

The ELA M 260 Master Stereo Set offers the user the knowledge and comfort that the tools they are using will give identical responses for their most important stereo recording.
