Neumann U 249 Large Diaphragm Tube Condenser Microphone

The Neumann U 249 is one of the rarest and most sought-after microphones in the world. A large diaphragm tube condenser with continuously variable polar patterns, the U 249 shares its core DNA with the legendary U 47 and M 49 but offers an exceptionally refined and airy top end that collectors and engineers have chased for decades. Finding one in original condition with its original case is extraordinarily rare.

This example is in excellent original condition and comes complete in its original Neumann transit case — a remarkable find for any serious collector or studio.
