Bock Audio’s specialty is re-creating the sound of great microphones of the past using modern methods and readily available components, which also makes for a more reliable and consistent product. When they decided to tackle the prestigious U47, they started with the power supply and amplifier from their flagship 507 microphone and combined it with a custom-made k47-type capsule to bring the performance of the original, German U47. The result is the Bock Audio 4-Zero-7: a faithful rendition of a classic microphone.

The U47 is the sound of popular music; from Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley to Led Zeppelin and the Beatles, the U47’s signature presence peak and pronounced proximity effect gives vocals that detailed, in-your-face sound like no other microphone from its era. Amazing punch and clarity also made the U47 an indispensable instrument mic, particularly on drums. The Bock 4-Zero-7 captures all of that hit-making mojo and puts it in a package that you can use every day in your studio, minus the five-figure price tag and costly repair bills that accompany any vintage piece.

The U47 has a particular sound and response, so the Bock 4-Zero-7 aimed directly for that — flat frequency response is not what this mic is about. The slight peak at 8kHz adds breathiness while the warm, round lows add intimacy to any voice or instrument. Bock Audio handcrafts each 4-Zero-7 with point-to-point wiring and premium-grade electronic components, including an NOS EF814k tube. Their no-compromise approach to every aspect from design all the way to testing ensures that you are buying a high-end, precision instrument.

The Bock Audio 4-Zero-7 gives your recordings those intangible sonic elements that are hard to put a price on. Create your own classics with the Bock Audio 4-Zero-7.
