My wife is Russian, so I showed her the MC49's on Dirk's website and I asked her how to pronounce "Nevaton"
She said: "There is no way in Hell you're buying another set of microphones, so don't even think about it"
Funny, that didn't sound Russian at all.
You can hear the exact pronunciation in this interview with Lonya Nenashev from Nevaton- go to 21:27 after the file buffers:

Also some interesting comments about the Nevaton factory in St. Petersburg, which is why I revived this old post.
A matched set of MCE400s is on it's way to my front door, thanks to TNJazz- can't wait to try these out!
