Developed in close collaboration with Rupert Neve, the sE Electronics RNT is a flagship large-diaphragm, multi-pattern tube condenser microphone that brings the larger-than-life sound of classic studio tube mics into the modern age. A handcrafted 1-inch true-condenser dual-diaphragm capsule, hand-selected ECC82 tube stage, and custom Rupert Neve Designs transformers capture vocals and instruments with enhanced depth and sonic clarity.The floor-box power supply houses a second custom Rupert Neve Designs output transformer built around the same discrete op-amps used in the 5088 console. A nine-position polar pattern switch, three switchable gain stages, and active 40/80 Hz low-cut filters give you precise control over source pickup and ambient bleed.Key Features Handcrafted, gold-sputtered 1-inch true-condenser dual-diaphragm capsule Hand-selected ECC82 tube optimized for the first custom Rupert Neve output transformer Nine selectable polar patterns from omni through cardioid to figure-8 Fully discrete Class-A electronics in both active stages Switchable gain stages (-12 / 0 / +12 dB) with 24 dB extended dynamic range Switchable active low-cut filters at 40 Hz and 80 Hz All-metal microphone housing with gold-plated XLR connector Second custom Rupert Neve transformer and 5088-style op-amps in floor box Specifications Capsule: Handcrafted 1-inch true condenser Tube complement: 1x 12AU7 / ECC82 Polar patterns: 9 (omni, cardioid, figure-8, plus three steps between each) Frequency range: 20 Hz to 20 kHz Sensitivity: 16 mV/Pa (-36 dBV) Gain: -12 / 0 / +12 dB, switchable Max SPL: 151 dB Equivalent noise: 18 dB Dynamic range: 133 dB Signal to noise ratio: 76 dB Low-cut filter: 40 / 80 Hz, 12 dB/oct, switchable Output impedance: 30 ohms Recommended load impedance: >1k ohms Connectivity: 3-pin male XLR (via floor box) Power: Included floor-box power supply Microphone dimensions: 62 x 240 mm (2.44 x 9.45 in.)
