Telefunken USA shows off its flagship 251 mic, reverse engineered from the original 1959 model. This legend is back in a major way, and the Telefunken rep shows off the mic with a look at the "naked" 251 to see how all the components fit together to create that vintage Telefunken sound. The new version has a historically accurate capsule design, and all parts are built to the original tolerances. Nostalgia? Sure. Performance? definitely.
