Title: Cables for a AKG CK61
Post by: shyboy on October 03, 2023, 02:22:02 AM

hello colleagues, I would like to ask a question, to see if you can help me.
4 years ago I bought a pair of cables from Nick, Active cables for my SCHOEPS Mk41v capsules, I also bought a babynbox, both work great!!!
My question is, in a store near my house they sell two AKG CK61 capsules, and I don't know if this equipment I bought from Nick can be valid for the AKG capsules.

Thanks for your help

You’d need some additional cable’s to be made, the schoeps stuff will only work with schoeps caps. But I believe the NBOX would still be compatible as long as the new cables are made to work with your existing box. .

The nbox should work just fine but the phase will be reversed.

I run those AKGs and I got my cables from Nick about a year ago, I think he still makes them.

I just had a conversation with Nick a few weeks ago about some new cables for MBHO mics. He's still in business.

He's still making them - I'm waiting for a set of Schoeps cables now.

OP - PM me and I can get you his contact info.
