The with M7 capsule in the M9 kit sounds just perfect.

As a producer and sound engineer, I have owned and used every professional mic ever made for decades and know them well. U47's, U67¨s, U87's, TLM's, Telefunken's, C12's, Manleys, 414 vintage and XL's and the C800.

That said, I was on the fence wanting to buy this capsule for a couple of years.
I regret waiting so long, it would have saved me so many headaches.

I finally bought the K87 a month ago and installed it in a MA87.
It's a $70 dollar mic on Ebay.
I was blown how it made this cheap mic sound better than a $4,000 mic!
I can't believe how linear sounding it is.
When I boost the treble 2 - 3db it's crystal clear with no plosive harsh consonants.

The K87 is a great sounding capsule in my ears.
Makes mixing vocals a breeze, I barely have to use any eq or compression.
I will be replacing a lot of capsules this summer :).
Excellent job Mic&Mod !!

Exciting to build and a nice challenge to calibrate for highest output and lowest distortion.
Fantastic quality all the way through, don't think I'd be happier with an original... just poorer...

Very good cable!!!!

Very nice mic!!!! only one thing I couldn't find the microphone diagram…..Please…. Good work

SUPER

Nice little challenges.. probably not recommended as a 1st DIY Project...
Nice little suitcase for it, and so nice to look at... and touch.
The sound is also just delicious

Take your time when building, if you are careful and doublechecking everything all will be fine. What you get is a beautifully sounding microphone with low noice. I am more than pleased!

It was just a great experience to build it.
Top quality components.. and then that little black, cute tube
Top delicious sound and just lovely to look at and touch

Je viens de construire mon second M49. Testé et approuvé. J' ai maintenant un couple d'exception !

Just so amazing to look at, and touch... and amazing sound... top quality components, and a very detailed guide... makes the build a highly addictive experience

Got this microphone over a month now and i'm trilled! This comes realy close with the original, who a friend of mine uses in his studio. We compared the two and it's almost indentical to the Ela M 251 from Telefunken. And for this price... awesome!! It's now my "go to" mic for solo singers.

I bought 2 Kits as (quite cheap) overheads. They do not disappoint. The sound seems very neutral, almost as if it is a SDC.

I have only yet used it on Speech, Guitar (Electric and Acoustic) and Vocals.

Sometimes I miss the big sound of a LDC as I'm used to that, but these mics just work well in any condition, take EQ incredibly well, have more resolution and pressure than anything else under 1000€ that I've heard....I'm happy, despite not being used to the sound signature yet.

Thumbs up! Great Kit! The boy is a tad smaller than expected, lovely and more heavy than the cheapo 30€ mics.

I never dreamed that I could own a 251 in my life. I received the kit today which was very well packed and I started building immediately. I have some diy experience so it went pretty fast. The build was very comprehensive and easy to do with the instructions. This is a beautiful mic to look at! But the most important thing. The sound… I’m blown away by the quality. I’ve worked with many condensers and never heard anything like this. It’s a very very good sounding mic. I like it better than any u47’s I’ve heard but maybe that’s just my taste. This has more of a pleasing curve to start with. This is truly ‘capturing’ what I want it to.
It fits my vocals amazingly. It’s super low noise and just deep and 3d.
I might post an update once I’ve worked with it longer. But for now consider me impressed

Bought a stereo pair of the M251 DIY kit. Never build a DIY kit of any sort before. Found it quite easy to put together the mic's, which is btw of superb quality. The mic's feels and sounds expensive, though their not...I'm so satisfied that I'm going to order the U67 kit in the near future🤩

watch out .. highly addictive .. my DIY no.2 .. M67 ... just so nice to look at and touch .. and I got it tested on 2 acoustic guitars ... wow, great sound ... enjoy me for further testing. It's certainly not the last Mic & Mod DIY I buy!

I bought this item to try out for a repair on an Audio Technica AT4040 microphone that has been broken for a long time. I had to drill 2 new mounting holes in the mic to allow the item to fit. It worked out perfectly and brought the mic back into use again.

Just had time assemble the kit, more testing end of October

Just so beautiful. Just to look at and touch and the sound from it is absolutely fantastic.
Top class components. and the building instructions are very detailed with nice pictures.

True M7 sounds super quality!

Very well made power supply that works flawlessly and easily. Thanks to the friendly, competent help from Mic&Mod, who provided a technician, the conversion to a heating voltage from 6.3 V to 4 V was possible.

Really happy with our stereo pair of the m87 mics. Can't personally compare it to the original vintage U87 as I've never used one but this build was easy enough for us to do with a few months of experience building guitar pedals. Happy with the sound and the materials are very solid and well made. Also like the box. Would definitely buy another kit or two from Mic and Mod
