Soyuz microphones 013 TUBE-M

The Soyuz 013 TUBE-M is a matched stereo pair of small-diaphragm tube condenser microphones, designed to deliver accurate, warm, and musical sound reproduction.

Each microphone utilizes the S13 capsule, developed and manufactured by Soyuz. This 25mm gold-sputtered capsule delivers detailed highs, warm mids, and balanced lows, capturing source nuances while maintaining a natural and flattering sonic signature.

The 013 TUBE’s circuitry imparts subtle coloration and a particularly smooth high-frequency response. Compared to the 013 FET version—which offers slightly faster transient response—the 013 TUBE provides a rounder, silkier sound, making it particularly well-suited for bright or complex sources.

Thanks to their matched pairing, these microphones are ideal for stereo recording applications. They excel as drum overheads and on acoustic guitars, pianos, vocal ensembles, strings, and orchestras.

Each microphone features a proprietary Soyuz toroidal transformer, adding depth and character to the signal while maintaining excellent definition.

The 013 TUBE-M comes with a dedicated stereo power supply featuring -20 dB pads. Also included are two 5-meter 4-pin cables, two microphone clips, and a wooden storage case. Key Features
