Here’s a Bang and Olufsen BM5 Stereo Ribbon Microphone from the 1960’s! These B&O’s feature two sections with identical ribbons and transformers inside. When the top section is at 90 degrees, a Blumlein pattern can be achieved to add extra dimension. These microphones need a lot of gain, but when gained up add nice depth and character when used as a drum overhead, room mic, or acoustic mic! This BM5 has its original ribbons in great shape, and has been upgraded with a new output connector and bypassed switches (they are often problematic) for ease of use. Aside from some paint loss on the bottom section of the microphone, this one is in great shape and works perfectly. If you’ve been looking for a ribbon option for overheads and more, this is the microphone for you. Grab this BM5 Stereo Ribbon from Bang and Olufsen!
