Neumann U87Ai to MK67 mod how-to

[@babbylonsound2421]

Thanks for this great Video! I received my MaxMod in 2018. I swapped out the TLM67 guts for the MK67. Ive also used Telefunken ef806s and ef86 tubes with it. Ive used this mic several times a week since I got it from Mr. Max Kircher in mid 2018. Its works great and it is an absolutely beautiful sounding microphone.

When I first considered that you were "modding" a U87Ai, my thought was "who would do that?" But, seeing as it's non-destructive and quickly reversible, I like the idea a lot.

Thanks for doing this video. I'm right on the edge, very tempted to get this mod. My main concern is self noise of the circuit.

[@dobbatron]

Nothing noticeable beyond any tube mic.

[@FamousTVvoice]

@@dobbatron I forgot that I had posted the comment I made. I have since got this mod and love it.

hey can you make a video if how it sounds?

[@marcusphillips7937]

Hi, thanks for this video. How about the sound? I read that lot of guys who order this nice U67 plug in has the problem with the transformer sound and replace it with Moby U67 transformer. I heard the samples and the stock one sounded really dull.

[@jfrancis2649]

I have an MK67, my Neumann BV12 transformer is on the way. Before I have it installed i’m gonna make a before and after video

[@olajideparis]

Thanks for the video. How can we buy one?

[@zweinullnulleins]

Could you do a Video of the tube replacement?

[@Thereal673]

I want to buy one where can I get it

[@emmanuelechem2811]

Any idea what's the difference between the tubes?

[@paulblack5025]

Great video , Does he send a power box too with the insert ?

[@dobbatron]

Yes, power and cable

[@prblm1784]

Where can I purchase this mod and would I need an extra external tube amp

[@dobbatron]

Power supply, cable is all included.

[@tutorial4779]

the u87 ai has no valve in it wtf? It is a 3 pin XLR mic with phantom power? 2:52

[@dobbatron]

Correct 87ai has no valve, nor does the original 87. This 67 mod does and the new body has a diff connector for the power supply. What's the misunderstanding?

[@tutorial4779]

@@dobbatron So you change a condenser microphone (u87) in a vintage u67 (tube microphone) ??? Is that possible. I always thought you would need a completely new circuit.

Did he take a second to get back to you when you reached out? I’ve contacted him via the email in this thread and haven’t heard back.
