This is not your grandfather’s ribbon microphone. The New SC-5C. Distributed Exclusively by Silvia Classics®

Silvia Classics®, LLC

Silvia Classics has been providing services to the broadcast, cinema, recording, and stage trades for over 15 years.

We provide museum quality microphone restoration, and professional ribbon repair to vintage RCA and other velocity mics to original equipment specifications. We also re-ribbon most brands of microphones including Altec, American, Amperite, BBC/Marconi, Beyer, Bruno, Coles, Electro-Voice, Nady, Oktava, RCA, Rauland, Reslo, Shure, STC, Turner, Universal, Webster, and Western Electric.

We have expanded our engineering to include the designing and manufacturing of new high quality, professional ribbon microphones, such as the SC-5C, to meet the professional and exacting needs of today’s demanding recordists. We are also working to design other high-quality ribbon microhpones to suit the current needs of the industry.

What’s new?

The SC-21® Harp mic is a new take on an old idea that gives you the opportunity to transition quickly between an open “clean” tone to a closed “Dirty” sound. This great addition to our product line is available now.

We are working on a new ribbon mic that many consider to be “the king of ribbons”. Prototype parts have been fabricated and we will begin to assemble for testing in the summer of 2008. Look for more information by the year’s end.

We have an RCA prototype that was only tested to verify their theory of miniature unidirectional mics. We were able to obtain the actual unique parts and sketches to build this prototype. It is a “sweetheart” of a ribbon mic never seen before. We are working to have our prototype by year-end 2008. We will keep you informed.
