Jim Merod, On Sound and Music, July 2003...are among the most astoundingly vivid and accurate microphones I have ever heard. They may, in fact, be the most accurate as well as the most beautiful microphones I have ever employed in recording pianos... range of tonal voicings and experiential authority appears in spades with the undeminished clarity and precision... I cannot more highly recommend any audio product...

Bob Ross of Recording Magazine, November 2003, -News Forum, 'Recording Audio Professional' defends his original review of T.H.E. mics as to which microphones can be thought of as "in league with the very best"...Schoeps, of course...Josephson Series Six, yep, DPA 4000 series (on *most* applications), some Neumann KM84's (emphasis on some), some M-G - SMS2000's (emphasis on some), and...uh, well, some T.H.E.'s.
That's it. All done, game over. *There's* your league.

AKG? Shure? Audio-Technica? Minor league, dude...those are the Pawtucket Sox in comparison. Like to read ALL of this post?

KA-04 Preamplifier - Shown with Capsules
Preamp		 T.H.E's versatile and innovative KA-04 preamp body is the backbone to their range of microphones, offering an unprecedented signal-to-noise ratio and fast electronics. Coupled with the KA-04 T.H.E. offers a range of specialized modular capsules that will pull the wool from your ears and bring a smile to your face!
A whole new design and construction for the classic one inch (25mm) capsule series. Smooth throughout the recording range, articulate without a hint of harshness. This has been called T.H.E.'s "most complete" recording tool.

KR-25A 1" (25mm) Side Address Capsule
KR-33A Side Address Cardioid Capsule - Shown with KA-04 Preamplifier
KR-33A 33mm Side Address Capsule		 The classic, deep-math designed, German/Russian 33mm diaphram capsule has been modified with a new look and feel and is in harmony with T.H.E. fast and quiet electronics. You don't need tubes or "vintage" electronics for that BIGGER than LIFE solo sound.
The KR-50 capsule has the same T.H.E. truth and functionality of our KR-25A cardioid lollipop sereis; yet allows omnidirectional tracks with more ambience and 'air'.

"Industry-standard" free field omni capsule based on a new, lightweight, "compound" capsule assembly that creates clean, fast, accurate and exceptionally smooth frequency response when used with T.H.E.'s KA-04 preamp body. KR-1F Free Field Omni - Shown with KA-04 Preamplifier

KR-2W Wide Cardioid Capsule - Shown with KA-04 Preamplifier
KR-2W Wide Cardioid Capsule		 Cardioid fullness with more ambient "capture" and a slight high-end "lift". Designed for string sections, but decidedly effective for percussion and steel-stringed instruments as well. Quite possibly the ultimate acoustic guitar mic.

Stage Vocal
Condensor
Microphone		 Vocal condensors for stage use recently became popular. They typically came in one of two flavours, true condensor capsules, (costly) or pre-polarized back electret capsules, (cheap).but never the correct combination of gain, noise floor, smooth response or handling that Taylor likes.....
