"(...) 'Peter does incredible work on all vintage microphones. One of our favourites is a Neumann/Gefell UM57 totally rehabbed and outfitted with his solid-state multipattern power supply,' Holtzman says."

"The DN221 is beautifully made(..). The Tubelife-257 and the Gefell supplies sounded fabulous, with strong mids and deep lows, but the DN221 was quite different. (...) Transients seemed quicker and fine details were enhanced. "

Some of our clients' appreciated feedbacks:

I don't know what to say!  I just setup the SM69 and I have never heard such a beautiful sound come out of this microphone before.  Whatever you did, is magic!  Thank you a million times!

We will name the mic after you. The 57 is really getting a lot of repeat requests and is satisfying many clients. Great on Chico Freeman's sax on his latest CD. I always let everyone know who brought it to life.
----
The PSU definitely gives a huge leap in the sound! Now my U67 sounds more clear, punchy, fat and in detail.  And the case looks totally beautiful and is built like a tank!!

The mic sounds excellent and is in the condition you described. Great power supply!
