I'm told it's the power supply. Good thing I was able to download the schematics already. Doesn't seem too hard.
Now if the tube on this thing goes, I wonder where I can get some ? It's like...AC107 or something.

Jobet, register at the Neumann forums and try to get info from their engineer, Martin Schneider.

Interesting site... you could even dig for history on that particular mic. What's the serial?

Classic! What a find? You got a treasure my friend....Hope the capsule is still intact...Yung mga Turner, Teisco, at mga ribbon mics ng lolo ko wala na eh, pinaglaruan ko lang kasi yun nung bata ako ayun wasak wasak na at nasira na ng kalawang lahat...  :-(  :cry:
Sayang nga eh....   :-(  :oops:

I found an off-the-shelf solution to the problem :-D.

I already analyzed the power supply. Hu-watt !!! De-tubo pa ang rectifier ! The entire thing should be 50 years old. I think I'll recommend to just retire the old supply and buy new ones. Meron pa palang nabibili.

Nope she won't be mine and I'm not worthy to have her either. Although yung mga kapatid nyang U47 and U67 dadaan din sa shop ko.
