The RCA BK-11A Ribbon Microphone

This week's video highlights samples from the 1960’s RCA BK-11A that I sold earlier this week! These were the last great ribbon that RCA designed, with a lightweight and well shaped body. Because these ribbons were released at the end of the height of the broadcasting industry, they never received the spotlight they truly deserved. There aren’t many samples of the BK-11A out there, so I hope you find this video helpful.
I post videos just like this one every Friday night, so subscribe to stay up to date on what's next!
