Electret microphone for good sound quality and workmanship, but old.

The microphone was manufactured by PRIMO Germany for both MEL and Nakamichi.
This is the version with 48V phantom power and is silver in color.

The most recent reference 4535 is black and powered by an internal battery of 1.5 V.

Specifications are very similar.

OVERALL OPINION

See my opinion on the micro NAKAMICHI CM-100 which corresponds exactly to 4535.
