Inside the RNT

1″ TRUE CONDENSER CAPSULE

Hand-crafted and gold-sputtered, this is the finest and most complex capsule sE has ever built. We tune each refined electrode design individually in our factory to deliver supremely natural sound quality.

HAND-CRAFTED METAL HOUSING WITH PREMIUM FINISH

All-metal construction built with highest attention to detail, providing efficient rejection of any electrical interference and noise with a high-quality finish to ensure a great look for many years.

HAND-SELECTED TUBE AND CUSTOM TRANSFORMER

Unique tube circuit design optimized for driving the first custom-made transformer. Each microphone-grade tube is carefully selected and pretested in-house for stunning realism and depth in recordings.

NINE SELECTABLE POLAR PATTERNS

Precisely tuned dual-diaphragm capsule design allows you to choose the perfect setting for every application while minimizing unwanted signal bleed with ease.

GOLD-PLATED XLR CONNECTOR

Ensures loss-free, reliable signal connection for years and years of demanding use in the studio or on stage.

DISCRETE CLASS-A AMPLIFICATION

SOLID CASE & WOODEN STORAGE BOX

The RNT comes packaged in a wooden presentation box next to its custom shockmount and robust power supply, all within a secure and solid flight case.
