Make It Boom. Keep it Pure.

Handcrafted in Vienna, the OC-B6 is the world’s first large-diaphragm condenser microphone purpose-built for kick drum. Built for brutal 170 dB SPL, with pure, uncolored tone, a 25 Hz subsonic filter, and a 220° swivel head. Vintage tump or modern attack – you’re in full control. No distortion. No pre-EQ. No compromises.

The 818s are absolutely stunning! Not only they sound incredible on pretty much any source but they give me extreme flexibility to shape my sounds after the recording through PolarDesigner and Stereo Creator.
