Interesting info I was reading. You might compare the two magnetic circuits to solid state amps versus tube amps, where the solid state amp gives it all its got then clips hard, while a tube amp compresses nice and smooth. The extension of this idea, then, is that with AlNiCo magnets, like the tube amp, you can seem to have a louder average volume since it gets compressed smoothly. With neodymium you do have sort of a different signal. However AEA still makes top notch mics and they are doing a wonderful service keeping this technology alive.
Incredible mic, so glad it is still being made and serviced, well done guys.
great video, every bit of this was good information. I didn't know about the ribbon resonance tuning. This makes me want an AEA mic.
Fascinating video. I know it’s an advertisement, but it was really interesting! 👍
How can a video about ribbon mic have such sharp siblances?
Really nice and informative tho

Yeah

If you like resonance, check out Monette trumpets 🎺
Great video! I just shoot one restoring my 1955 RCA BK5B that I found in a box from my uncle!! Check it out! @
