Sontronics STZeta Large-Diaphragm JFET Condenser Microphone, Black

The Zeta from British mic house Sontronics: a large-diaphragm cardioid condenser built around JFET circuitry — the solid-state path to a warm, slightly rounded character — with ultra-low self-noise and high sensitivity, so quiet sources come up clean. Sontronics mics have a devoted following for voicing that flatters vocals without hyping them, and the Zeta brings that in a handsome black package. XLR, phantom powered.
