M7 Capsule: Precision Redefined

At the core of our sound lies the M7 capsule, built entirely in-house from start to finish. We machinate the brass components with incredible accuracy, paying attention to every detail. Unlike traditional vintage capsules made from PVC—now classified as carcinogenic—we have redesigned the capsule’s geometry to replicate the sound of the vintage M7, without the health risks. Our expertise in the intricacies of the M7 allows us to adapt its sonic profile to meet the exacting standards of even the most critical sound engineers. The result is a balanced, nuanced sound, achieved through precise machining down to just a few microns
