![]() ![]() Each kit contains a valve power supply, an 8m dedicated mic cable, an IEC mains lead, a shockmount, a stand bracket, and the microphone itself. The GT66 and GT67 mics are supplied in large cardboard carrying cases, and matched pairs (with adjacent serial numbers) are available for stereo applications. I Love mics (one of the most important parts an audio chain).The Groove Tubes GT67 valve and GT55 FET mics.Photo: Mark Ewing I DO own several Groove Tube "Convertibles" (Also a Re-branded Sterling) that I like very much for live vocal use (sound like a dynamic but with clearer top end).īeing a micaholic with limited funds as of late (changing soon, I have accumulated a list of mics I want to try: A mod Apex 460, A Joly mod Oktava 319 and top of my list (and most expensive a Peluso 22 47. I wasn't overly impressed with either of them. I sold the GT66 with a Carvin tube mic that used the same power supply (Don't remember but they sold cheap). I think the K2 is an overall more balanced mic than the GT66 (Love it in a tight pattern for female vocs - it has that intimate, breathy quality due to proximity effect). If I'm correct the LDC Groove tube mics are re-branded Sterling mics. Probably my favorite "go to" mic is the ADK TL, next up would be a Neumann tlm 49 (awesome mic but not as versatile as the ADKs. I have a pair of ADK TL mics (not tube mics), a Rode K2 and HAD a GT66 (among many others). I picked up the TC but I'm still preferring my Nueman 103 more often than not. ![]() The ADK playback of my HR's sounded like my HR's whereas the other 2 did not. The Rode's hi end sounded wierd when compared to the others - kinda like my NT2's. The GT66 was really hyped and sibilant in the hi mids and really bright. The ADK was the standout especially on the speaker test they really captured the rhythm section nicely. I have had the ADK tc, the Rode K2 and the GT66 in the studio at the same time and recorded test tracks on guitar, male vocals, and jazz coming through my Mackie HR's. ![]()
