Here is a pair of funny little Geloso dynamic microphones, one is in pieces already.
Geloso M88 dynamic mics |
The build quality is nice – better than the early Geloso mics which tend to crumble. It has an internal two-bobbin humbucking transformer, to give an output impedance of 250 ohms.
Internal transformer for impedance matching duties |
The diaphragm is made from a light plastic for fast response, and they sound nice, if a little light on bass.

They use an annoyingly unobtainable 4 pin connector – I feel an XLR mod coming on…
The original unobtanium connector can be converted to XLR |
