The Coles 4050 is the first stereo microphone designed by Coles Electroacoustics. The Coles 4050 is not only a stereo mic, but it transforms from its stereo configuration into two completely separate mono mics. Most places only include one mount with these microphones and charge extra for the 2nd. We found the extra one so handy that we're tossing it in at a discount.

The mount has magnets that allow the two mono mics to connect together transforming it into a stereo mic. The 4050 was developed from the critically acclaimed Coles 4040 capsule that features extended frequency response and high output making it a very versatile capsule.

Kit Includes:

• 2x Coles 4050 microphones
• 2x magnetic microphone mounts
• 2x velvet protective pouches
• 2x XLR cable clips
• 1x Coles carry case

Mixwell says:
"The Coles 4050 shares some of the same inner workings as the 4040, but this is a pair of them, each with a simpler body and head grill than the original. The system includes a stereo/dual mono mounting system that offers the ultimate versatility in stereo mic placement. Each mount can hold one or both microphones, facilitating either coincident or spaced pair configurations. The 4050’s mounts allow the microphones to rotate through a full 360 degrees, affording you an unlimited ability to vary and define the stereo image. These microphones are smaller and less bulky than the original 4040 and placement of coincident pairs is much less cumbersome.
But how's it sound? The 4050 has a classic and inviting warmth with all the fullness you can handle [and in stereo!]. Acres of depth, high frequency reach and detail – will find you." -A/B
