This month we are giving away a superb valve microphone and a stunning pair of three‑way active monitors, worth £1844$2497. Enter today to win!
This month, we’ve teamed up with not just one but two of our favourite brands to offer you the chance to win two top‑tier studio prizes: a valve microphone and a pair of three‑way active monitors.
Founded in 2009 in Vienna, Austria, LEWITT Audio have always had a unique and innovative take on microphone design, and their PURE TUBE mic is the perfect example. A professional valve microphone optimised for vocal recordings, the PURE TUBE uses a unique circuit design with a signal path that is completely free from semiconductors and capacitors, resulting in an ultra-low self-noise of just 7dBA. The valve is a high-quality ECC82/12AU7, while the all-important capsule is a true capacitor type, with a gold-sputtered, one‑inch diaphragm. Read the SOS review here.
For this prize, LEWITT are giving away the comprehensive PURE TUBE Studio Set, comprising the PURE TUBE mic itself, the power supply, a 7-pin XLR cable, a bespoke shockmount, a magnetically attached pop filter, a transport bag for the mic, and a rugged carry case to keep it all together.
From the other side of the pond come Kali Audio, who have been making innovative studio monitors from their base in Burbank, California, since 2018. Their IN‑Series of active monitors combine the low distortion of three‑way speakers with the pin‑sharp stereo imaging of point‑source designs, thanks to the integrated coaxial tweeter/midrange driver. For this prize, Kali are kindly giving away the latest and greatest IN-Series model: the IN‑8 2nd Wave, an update to the original 2020 design which retains all that we loved about the first iteration, but with significantly reduced noise and distortion.
