The Beesneez BN251 ELA M 251 is a meticulously crafted, part-for-part mechanical replica of the iconic Telefunken ELA M 251 microphone, featuring identical external and internal components, including the connector, a faithfully recreated power supply, and the signature smooth, airy tone that has defined countless hit recordings.
The Telefunken ELA M 251 microphone, originally designed in the 1950s by Austrian manufacturer AKG, gained prominence in the 1960s as a result of a collaboration between AKG's engineering expertise and Telefunken's branding and marketing capabilities. Renowned for its unparalleled audio quality, this microphone earned a reputation for its smooth, rounded, yet airy sound, making it a favourite among recording professionals. However, the current version of the ELA M 251, manufactured in the United States, shares no direct lineage with the original, making it a modern homage rather than a continuation of its legacy.
Beesneez has redefined authenticity with the BN251, delivering a 1:1 clone of the original ELA M 251 microphone. Every mechanical component, from the housing to the connector, perfectly mirrors the original design. The power supply has been meticulously engineered to replicate the functionality and appearance of the vintage unit, ensuring the microphone offers an authentic aesthetic and unmatched sonic performance.
For recording professionals seeking the unique tonal character of the original ELA M 251, the BN251 offers an unparalleled solution. Its smooth, airy tonal qualities bring a timeless sound to vocal and instrumental recordings. The microphone stands out as an essential tool in any studio, combining historic sound reproduction with modern precision engineering to meet the demands of today’s artists and producers.
