The Soyuz 1973 is a large-diaphragm condenser microphone inspired by the golden age of FET microphones. It uses the 023 Bomblet capsule in an elegant, compact body.
Reviving the golden age of FET
Inspired by the golden age of FET mics, the 1973 features a version of the legendary Bomblet capsule, whose origins go back to AKG in 1953. It was refined by LOMO in the early 1970s, then redesigned by Soyuz engineers.
A microphone built to last
Soyuz mics are not cheap, but they are built to last. The 1973 is a sub-€1,000 alternative to the other Soyuz mics. The essentials are there: a beautiful capsule in a solid, durable body.

"Whether you like the Soyuz colour is up to you, but there is no doubt it belongs in the same league as the AKG 414, Neumann TLM103 and the like. The 1973 is a wonderful microphone. A future classic?" - Audiofanzine - Rated 9/10
