Palomar SL41 microphone

Making it sound as good as the sl41 has been quite a challenge. One way to tell what its potential is would be to switch it out with the element in the sl41 and see if it sounds identical. If that's the case, the surrounding components are directly responsible for how it sounds more so than the Electret itself.

 

The mic element itself has sound entry ports on the rear as well as the front which should make it noise cancelling, but I'm thinking the circuitry on that board is more critical than I previously thought.

 

This was the main reason.
Palomar SL41
Frequency Response: 20 ~ 16,000 hz
Sensitivity (0dB=1v/μbar, 1kHz): -54dB (±5dB)
Impedance: 680
Voltage 1.5

 

I need to master the ones I have before thinking about buying more.

 

Fidelity. This schematic is useless. The SL41 has too many components to fit them inside the bakelite case. Without those components, fidelity is lacking.
