The Vanguard V13 gen2 Tube Condenser Microphone is a large-diaphragm multi-pattern tube condenser microphone lovingly re-imagined by the Vanguard team over the last 2 years. Vanguard sought to improve upon the legacy of the lauded original V13, combining smooth modern detail with vintage warmth & character. With a gen2 upgraded power supply, premium cryogenically-treated tube circuitry (including US-made audiophile-grade resistors), Neutrik interconnects & a VLSM shockmount, the V13 will be your go-to microphone for vocals & instruments alike. Wherever possible, components are over-specced. The deep-cycle cryogenic treatment improves the lifespan & performance of critical electronic components. The V13 is designed & undergoes final assembly in sunny Southern California Every Vanguard microphone is backed by a 5 YEAR WARRANTY.

The V13 is designed with the character of yesteryear’s iconic vintage tube microphones in mind, while also utilizing the latest technology to ensure that every nuance & detail of the performance is faithfully captured. Specifically engineered with warm, full lows, a precise & detailed midrange, & buttery-smooth high end. The result is a microphone that unifies warmth with clarity, depth with detail, & character with precision.

The V13 is particularly forgiving when it comes to vocal style & timbre. Tested on both male & female vocalists in a diversity of ranges, styles & genres, most found that the V13 was usually the top option, despite being matched against microphones several times its cost

After hundreds of hours of listening & testing dozens of design variations with world-class engineers, the V13 is a top-shelf microphone with an incredibly low noise-floor. This is truly a professional, world-class microphone. INCLUDED ACCESSORIES
