Guter Allgemeinzustand
Bei dem Gerät handelt es sich um eine Neumann CU 48 k, ein Netzteil und Steuermodul für Kondensatormikrofone.Diese spezifischen Module wurden häufig in deutschen Rundfunkpulten verwendet, um Mikrofone wie das SM69 FET zu versorgen.Die farbigen Drehregler auf der Vorderseite dienen zur Einstellung der Richtcharakteristik (z. B. Niere, Kugel, Acht) für die Kapselsysteme des angeschlossenen Mikrofons.
At €199, this sits well below the €327 25th percentile and far under the €447 median for recent comparable listings, so on price alone it looks like a strong bargain. For a Neumann piece, that’s an unusually attractive entry point if the model is correctly identified and functioning as expected.
The upside here is straightforward: Neumann gear is prized for serious studio-grade performance, and the brand’s better mics and related kit tend to hold value because buyers trust the sound and build. At this level, the key is verifying exactly what’s included and that it’s fully operational; if it’s complete and clean, this is the kind of listing worth moving on quickly.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Neumann traces its origins to Berlin, Germany, where Georg Neumann and Erich Rickmann founded the company in 1928. Initially focused on pioneering condenser microphones, such as the groundbreaking CMV 3—nicknamed "The Bottle"—Neumann quickly established itself as an innovator amid the early days of professional audio. Despite wartime disruptions that split production and led to the creation of Microtech Gefell, Georg Neumann rebuilt in post-war Berlin, launching the iconic U 47 tube-condenser microphone, which solidified the brand's legacy in recording history.
The brand specializes in professional recording equipment, renowned for its high-end condenser microphones like the U 47, U 67, and U 87, which dominate studios worldwide. Beyond mics, Neumann produces studio monitors, headphones, preamplifiers, audio interfaces such as the recent MT 48, and historically excelled in cutting lathes for mastering. This pro-audio emphasis sets it apart from consumer hi-fi categories like amplifiers, turntables, or cables.
Neumann commands an elite position in the market as the gold standard for professional recording, embodying precision engineering and unmatched fidelity prized by engineers and producers. Its products grace legendary sessions, blending vintage reverence with modern reliability, making it essential for discerning hi-fi enthusiasts seeking studio-grade accuracy rather than mid-tier or boutique consumer gear.
