Topic: New: Schoeps MK22

[NOLAfishwater]

I wasn't trying to say that they were Schoeps, but just that front of the capsule looked similar to the the MK22. It is blatently obvious that they aren't Schoeps.

Does any one know how far apart the new STC22G ORTF bar keeps the capsules separated(in cm)? I just ordered a pair of the mk22s and would like to run them as recommended. I know it is more than 17 cm and less than the mk21s ORTF bar.

No answer for you, but....congrats!

Tax return came back and I had been tempted for too long on these. Thanks.

Also finally found the answer which is 21cm 110 degrees.

Club d'Elf friday night will be the first gig for these. Now two pairs will be there. And we also will still be running the comp for 21s,4s,22s.

Sluts like company......those will sound really nice for the Wood Brothers the following week too.

mk22 has same front appearance as the mk2h

[DSatz]

H2, the two models look different in that the inner ring on the MK 22 is black while the ring on the MK 2H is brass-colored. In both cases this is regardless of the capsule's finish.

It's no big deal in any practical sense, and I doubt that anyone here will ever be able to, like, get someone to go out with them just for knowing this bit of trivia. But on the off chance that the information might make that crucial difference to someone here some day, I mention it, in the interest of preserving the taper species.

Are the rings of different material or was this chosen for cosmetics?

Inquiring minds want to know andy

As common sense will tell you, the color of the rings has no effect on the sound quality of the capsules. But it's not just "cosmetics" either, since it's useful to be able to distinguish the two capsule types without staring impolitely at them.
