Topic: New: Schoeps MK22

[H₂O]

how are these different from the cables they already sell(k 5,10,20,30 u), which run 80.00-140.00 ?

The cables are different in that they use the Neutrik EMC-XLR connectors where as the others do not.  The cable itself is the same 4 conductor cable as used on the cables you mention above.

http://www.neutrik.com/us/en/audio/204_1603252336/EMC-XLR_Series_productlist.aspx

"The EMC-XLR Series is a specifically designed version of the XX series to give enhanced RF screening for critical applications in live performance and recording where there are particular problems with radio transmission or mobile phones."

Scott said the reason the price is so high is that Schoeps is about to raise the prices on all their cables as right now they are loosing money on them as the cables are made in house now.  He said this is  the first cable with a higher price.  He did not know when they where raising the prices on the rest though.

thanks for the info. guess i need to go ahead and order a back up pair of the k5lu for my CCMs before they go up.

anyone know when these will become available?

If anyone is seriously thinking of ponying up the cash for these mics they had better order soon.  I have a feeling the dollar is going to tank alongside of the Euro.  At one point the Euro was worth around 70 cents.  Today it was $1.35.  Not good for us, and Schoeps is not cheap and has no flex in price.

I thought it was like $1.50 when I was in Amsterdam in March, so I guess that is good.

we had almost 60 days warning last time, i think the supply chain is too established for schoeps to make drastic actions.

and i hate to admit it, but i feel when the american economy tanks its taking europe with it.

France, whose credit system s quite conservative and well-regulated is in fine shape.  So much for "Freedom Fries."  The rest of Europe is better off than we and also has a well-regulated credit and banking system.  Do you think this means anything??

Yea, it's $50
