The Dutch Plexi Gold Series

The Dutch is a beautiful rendition of the classic tube mics of the past. The body is powder coated  standard in a Cream, 251  or satin nickel paint job and finished with a custom badge.

The circuit board is a custom built Plexiglas board with Gold plated pins. all of the pins are connected point to point with 4% Silver bearing solder.

The circuit in the Dutch can either be configured as the C12 or the 251 circuit. 

The grill mod option offers a longer open area on the head basket. The Chromed head basket is similar to the C12.  
 
The circuit, capsule, and transformer can be customized
 to fit your needs.

The C12 is an elegant sounding circuit with a very smooth overall character and makes for a grand improvement with the stock 460 capsule. When coupled with the JJ12 or the Beesneez CK12, the lows are fuller, the mids are smoother and the high end is ethereal by comparison. Female vocals absolutely excel on the C12 circuit; as well acoustic guitar and drum overheads are a favored application. 

The Dutch C12 microphone uses a Cinemag transformer which offers exceptionally warm mids and high frequency response along with a big bottom end. 
 
JJ Audio is proud to employ a special tuning method to further warm up and sculpt the Dutch to sound even more like the original C12 by utilizing an old technique long abandoned by modern manufacturing. 
 
One of the best historically accurate CK12 capsules is the Beesneez CK12 and is available at an additional price for installation in the Dutch C12. This capsule takes the Dutch from great to timeless.
ThThe ELA M 251 is a much more aggressive and forward sounding circuit with extended lows and highs with the stock 460 capsule. Definitely a rock star in its own right, when coupled with the JJ12 or the Beesneez CK12, the circuit takes on a totally different guise and presents the user with a very large and full sounding capture that excels on vocals, acoustic guitar and drum overheads.

The Dutch M251 microphone utilizes a Cinemag transformer which offers exceptionally warm mids and high frequency content along with a rich low end. 
 
The M 251 circuit is exceptionally pronounced yet elegant and is at home with hip hop artists, RnB singers, instrumentalists and rockers alike. 
 
 
The Beesneez  CK12 is available at an additional price for installation in the Dutch M251. The CT12 when coupled with the 251 circuit offers extended low end, rich mids and top end that is other worldly.
