Everyone, I purchased a Soundelux E-47 mic used and when it arrived it was not working properly. Instead of sending the mic back I worked out a deal with the seller to pay for the repair. In looking at who serviced Soundelux mic's I again found the name James Gangwer. James is well know around here as a great tech and guy. I know JJ has sent him quite a few mic's to work on and I now see why. I sent the mic to him and just received it back yesterday. I put it up today to check it and all I can say is wow. James showed an amazing attention to detail and knowledge that is unrivaled. He replaced a couple of the caps that had blown, replaced the tube, and reworked the power supply that was out of spec. The mic is truly a gem and in no small part because of James and his work. He will be getting a few of my other "projects" that need fixing. If your in need of great service then James is your man. His pricing is great and unlike many service guy's I have used, his attention to detail is incredible. Thank you James and also JJ for suggesting him in all of your other posts. Michael Greene |

Now, if that's not Eastern Bloc design, I don't know what is! |

Stereo mic? I hope those capsules rotate, or... |

Dig that transformer and the tube has the wiring sticking out of the bottom and would appear to have been hand blown (if you saw the tube on the other side, for the other capsule it has a little curly cue on it). I could be wrong about the tube but there are no other markings... James is a godsend.... |

What tube is that? It appears to be a sub miniature, and I see it has a socket which is rare on a submini. edit: looking again and comparing in the other pics the size of the tube compared to the PSU, it's not a sub mini |

I believe it is a sub mini. It's smaller than the size of your pinky finger. |

Just another plug for James. Sent him an e47 for repair and he was fast and painless! |
