251 is the clear winner for all categories. It possess smoothness, gentle transient and richness in all frequency.

I loved this one. Great work putting it together. Parker and Frankie’s voices are incredible. Great selection of artists and songs. I was barely paying attention to the mics!

Happy to have one of the first 167s. Thanks VK.

The 251 sounds incredible on her voice.

Thanks for the video. The mics seem to sound great. 167 for him and 251 for her. No surprises. 167 for electric guitar, 251 for acoustic guitar and drum overhead. A comparison with other mics would be nice: Vs original Telefunken /Neumman models VS New Neumann U67 reissue VS New Telefunken USA ELAM 251 VS Mojave Audio counterparts

Hello! I bought the bock 251 because of your review. What is the pre amp used for this video?

[@vintagekingproaudio]

We used the API 3124V!

Thank you!

251 sounds warm (good for ballads) 167 more forward tone (good for pop productions)

It's the "back" in "i'll come baaaaack" frequency that i'm not liking on the 167 that the 251 just nails perfectly. The 251 gets every frequency right lol. But of course i can fix that frequency in post on the 167, but it would irritate my ears during the recording process.
