Seeking old Microvox concertina microphones

[Jody Kruskal]

I have been using a Microvox concertina mic unit for 30 years. I liked it for dances and other performances where traditional mics on stands were not so handy. 

 

Now, it has finally given up the ghost. I don't believe they are made anymore. I have a local repair person who might be able to fix mine but finding parts that will fit in the power supply could be a problem. So if you have one that works or one that does not, I would be interested in buying it from you.

Hi Jody- I have a Microvox system that I no longer use.  All working as far as I know.  2 pairs of microphones- 1 pair on gooseneck clips  and 1 pair that attach with Velcro, plus cables, mini power supply, balanced output unit and muting DI box  Are you interested in any/all of this?

With this and micrvox mikes, I had too high a signal, but with some home made copies it works well.

This looks like a much better unit than the Microvox controller - inserting batteries without damaging the internal wiring is tricky.  This unit does not appear to need batteries.

As long as whatever you are plugging into has phantom power.
