Avantone Pro Ck-6 Classic Large-capsule Cardioid Fet Condenser Microphone
- Product Code: ga185053
-
The Avantone Pro CK-6 Classic is a large-diaphragm, condenser microphone with a cardioid polar pattern, well suited for capturing vocals and various acoustic instruments in a professional or home studio environment. The mic features a 32mm gold-sputtered mylar capsule, transformerless FET circuitry, and high-grade capacitors fashioned out of polystyrene and metalized polypropylene. These components are representative of the grade modders often use to upgrade their existing mics. In this microphone, these parts come stock.
The microphone's switchable, -10 dB pad allows you to close-mic high-SPL sources without overloading the circuitry. A switchable 80 Hz low-cut filter helps reduce problematic rumble and booming low frequencies.
The mic's metallic, cabernet-red body finish, accented with polished nickel trim, supplies an overall retro look and feel. Complementing the look is the included retro-style shockmount. The CK-6 Classic also includes a carrying pouch.

Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. I recently bought this tripod in B&H (Manfrotto MK290XTA3-3WUS 290 Xtra Aluminum Tripod with 804 3-Way Pan/Tilt Head)Is this adapter compatible with my tripod?
A: The VH-60HA can be used with your tripod but is not an ideal match - it would be oversized, Yody.
Q: 2. The exact diameter and length of the mic isn't listed. I'm trying to find a foam screen for this mic. I'm aware the mic comes with a windscreen. Can anyone help me out?
A: The Zoom SSH-6 has a 1 diameter. It is also about 6 long. The Auray WSF-2216 (B&H # AUWSF2216) is currently the best available option. It is a bit longer than 6 , which means you will probably have to cut it slightly to fit the microphone.
Q: 3. What is the difference between the BRIO Ultra HD Pro Webcam and the Logitech 4K Pro Webcam?
A: The Logitech BRIO Ultra HD Pro Webcam BH #LOBRIOWC90FP captures 3840 x 2160 video vs DCI 4K 4096 x 2160 on the Pro 4K model. The Pro 4K model also has an updated base with mounting for a tripod (1/4'' thread).
Q: 4. Astrophotography using 7D Mk II and Canon EF 8-15mm Fisheye with 2 plates on the 7D so it can be mounted facing forward on Wimberley 200 gimbal. Only horizontal images possible with non-collared lens (weight of gimbal destabilises tripod if swing center column 90 degrees to vertical). Sidemount conversion will give vertical image only, right? UGH. Has anyone used an L bracket on the Sidemount conversion?
A: I use a Kirk L plate on my Nikon D810 and have used it with the sidemount conversion with no problems.
Q: 5. Is the SSH-6 compatible with the Zoom F1? I have seen both yes and no. If so, does the F1 give customization options to change amount of ambient input like the H6?
A: yes just tried the F1 and SSH-6 combo and this is possible. By cycling through the REC LEVEL button you control the side mic level. Options are StGUN OFF, StGUN 30, StGUN 60, StGUN 90, StGUN 120, StGUN 150
Q: 6. What kind of cable would I need if I were using in concert with a Canon R5?
A: The Miops Capsule PRO Electronic Pan Head uses a 2.5mm cable. So it can use either one of these, https://bhpho.to/3tICuL1 or https://bhpho.to/3PEhgv0 .
Q: 7. can This webcam work with Windows 8.1 ?
A: As others have said, Yes it will work with Windows 8.1.
Q: 8. Please let me know the FEISOL VH-60 Horizontal Adapter Kit it has tilt?
A: Yes, you can tilt this item. Please note this can only hold 12 pounds, and it is strongly advised to use a counterweight.
Q: 9. does the SSH-6 require phantom power?
A: No idea, but as long as you connect it to a Zoom audio module like the F1 (the one I have), etc... it will be powered. This is for sure not a stand alone mic. It is designed to be used on capsule compatible zoom recorders. Not your question but let me tell you this thing is amazing ! Cheers.
Q: 10. Can we mix the directional shotgun mono with the stereo ambience in post? Or is the mix embedded into the audio track as set on the device?
A: The mix will be a mid-side stereo track. You would need mid-side decoder plug-in software to separate the mono mic and the bi-directional mic stereo track in post production.
