For the 22 47 SE, I kind of cheated and put in NOS RCA tube, making it a 22 47 LE, in effect. I am fortunate enough to have a small stockpile of these old tubes, and found that the microphone sounds great with either the factory Peluso tube or any number of NOS tubes. The microphone performs fantastically on vocals, acoustic guitar, cello, saxophone, you name it. It has a rich and warm bottom that isn't hyped, and enough detail and character in the top end to completely avoid any unnecessary processing after the fact.

"This is, hands down, my favourite mic! Every time I use this mic on lead vocals I am just so happy with the result. I run this through a Rupert Neve Designs Shelford Channel, and with just a little EQ and compression on the way in, I end up with a finished sounding vocal. Just add reverb."

“The Peluso P-Stereo and SR-14 Stereo Ribbon are my go-to mics for recordings that require the depth and character of a live performance.”

"My Peluso 2247LE was used to record all of Ben Lee’s vocals and his acoustic guitar. Almost every song was based around a live take of him singing and playing at the same time and the 2247LE was positioned to capture this performance. Have a listen to the album: most songs begin with an intimate vocal and acoustic guitar with no effects. It’s a real showcase for the 22 47 LE microphone! " -Brad Wood

"Peluso mics are hands down some of the best sounding, well built mics in the world. I’m a gear builder myself, and the quality of these microphones astonishes me." -Siegfried Meier

"Peluso Microphone's have been an essential part of our mic locker since the opening of my recording studio"

'Peluso microphones were the ONLY microphones used on the John Hartford “Memories of John” live recordings. They were extremely essential to obtain the pure and natural sound of the stringband.'
