РусскийThe 017 TUBE and 017 FET (formerly SU-019) condensers have the big and classic sound you’ve been searching for. Truly handmade capsules make these high performance microphones at home when detail, depth, and warmth are imperative to capture. The silky yet clear top end inherent in the capsule design, makes the 017 perfect for complementing the subtle nuances of vocalists, strings, and other complex instruments with difficult transients and sonics that cover the full frequency spectrum.

Larger Than Life
I put [the 017 TUBE] up against my best tube U47 - which is my all time favourite mic.. not just U47s in general I mean this exact one.. I own a ton of great mics and this particular 47 is the one I use whenever possible.. it’s my preferred vocal mic. it’s what I reach for.. tried and tested. What was crazy was just how close sounding your mic was to the best mic in the world..!!

The Tsar of Mics
The 017 microphone delivers the classic sound that engineers have only imagined possible from a new microphone. With an honest and open top-end, smooth and graceful mid-range, and a powerful yet balanced low-end, the 017 is designed to be the perfect mic for vocals while quickly endearing itself to instrumentalists looking to capture their natural sound with flattering character.
TUBE
vs
FET
The 017 Series is comprised of FET (field effect transistor) and tube (valve) powered models. Though the FET and Tube models are similar – the two share identical capsules, form factors, and sonic signatures – there are subtle differences between them. The 017 FET captures transients with a somewhat faster, tighter response; the 017 TUBE’s smoother, rounded top-end is perfect for sources requiring warmth with slightly more coloration.

The green badged 017 FET comes in a wooden case with a custom, hand-machined shock mount.
017 TUBE
The blue badged 017 TUBE comes in a wooden case with a custom, hand-machined shock mount, special 6-pin cable, power supply, and extra 6ZH1P pentode tube.
Innovation Through Heritage
The engineers at Soyuz spent years honing their craft studying, servicing, and working on the classics. They poured all of their knowledge into creating the 017 Series’ custom S17 capsule– a special capsule with an honest and open top-end, smooth and graceful mid-range, and a powerful yet balanced low-end. The 017 Series’ S17 capsule features a gold-sputtered, hand-tuned 34mm diaphragm that is based on the original K67 capsule developed in 1960. Soyuz has further developed the design, modifying how it is assembled and tuned. The result, when paired with Soyuz’s original schematic, is a capsule unlike any other.
Handcrafted
As with all Soyuz microphones, 017 Series microphones are completely handmade: bodies and capsules are manually machined and transformers are wound in-house in Tula, Russia.
