K87 Capsule – Cardioid
The BeesNeez K87 Cardioid Microphone capsule is the perfect replacement or DIY K87 Microphone capsule for Cardioid only microphones or builds.
The K87 was originally manufactured and made famous in the Neumann U87. It has isolated backplates, which were a feature necessary in this microphone to achieve accurate pattern control with a lower bias voltage of 48v given that the U87 was a phantom-powered microphone.
Australian Craftsmanship
Each Beesneez K87 cardioid microphone Capsule is entirely manufactured in the Beesneez factory in Australia under the guidance of CEO and industry expert Ben Sneesby.

DIY and OEM Compatibility
Ideal for DIY builders crafting U87-style microphones or retro-style replicas, as well as for professional users seeking high-performance replacement capsules. The Beesneez K87 replacement microphone capsule can be a drop-in replacement for the classic K87 microphone capsule, if the build is specifically built around a cardioid only U87 design. For many use cases there are benefits to a cardioid only design.
