Lawson Inc L47fet

Description

The Lawson L47fet is a modern interpretation of the Neumann U47fet. Both are transistor (FET) condenser mics with large-diaphragm capsules and fixed cardioid patterns.
The capsule in the L47fet was designed by Gene Lawson, and is based on the M7 capsule originally used in the U47/U48 microphones. Note that the M7 used a relatively thick PVC diaphragm, whereas Lawson’s capsule uses a very thin (3-micron) diaphragm mostly likely made of Mylar.

The Lawson Inc L47fet is also known as: L47SH.
