AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Description;

The unit is truly in like-new condition.

The Grundig GDM 313 is a classic vintage dynamic microphone, produced by the German manufacturer Grundig around 1970–1972. The microphone was at the time mainly sold as an accessory for reel-to-reel recorders and consumer audio.

Today it is a popular collectible, but it is also used by audio enthusiasts and musicians to capture a specific, characterful vintage (Lo-Fi) sound.

Main Features & Specifications;

Type: Dynamic microphone (does not require phantom power or battery).
Polar pattern: Cardioid (kidney-shaped), meaning it primarily picks up sound from the front and suppresses ambient noise.
Impedance: Dual-impedance via an internal transformer. Depending on the connection to the pin configuration, it yields a low impedance (about 200 Ohms) or high impedance (about 10k Ohms).
Connection: Originally supplied with a fixed cable and a 3-pin DIN connector.
Design: A striking, gloss-chromed metal head glued onto a black plastic handle. The microphone was supplied at the time in a padded plastic case including a related plastic desk stand.

Modern use and modification;

If you find a Grundig GDM 313 or want to use it on modern audio equipment (such as an audio interface or mixer), you should account for the 3-pin DIN plug. Because modern equipment uses XLR or 6.3 mm jack connections, they do not fit directly. Many hobbyists solder the cable to a XLR connection or use an adapter cable to connect the microphone directly at low impedance.

(This item will be packaged with extreme care for shipment. (And hoping that the postal workers will handle it carefully). With the exception of shipments to islands located outside the Netherlands. Note: Our items are checked for full operation unless otherwise described. Also all photos are part of the advertisement, and thus your purchase. Regarding all postal services, any damage or defects during transport are NOT our responsibility).
