ADK Microphones announces its collaboration with legendary microphone designer David Bock. David is a multi-award winning and award nominated microphone designer with over 100 awards or nominations in his 30 plus year career. He is the design genius behind David Bock Audio and Soundelux Microphones.
David’s history with ADK goes back to the very early days of ADK Custom Shop tube mics that he assisted with over 15 years ago.
David has now redesigned the latest flagship Z²-Mod, the Z²(Squared series) of six tube mics that – rather than clones of classic mics, takes the vintage tone-profile and re-imagines it with exponentially better specifications, and re-purposed for the modern recording studio.
Manufactured in USA, and created custom for each client, the Z-Mods come in six historical reference tone-profiles – Z²-12, Z²-47, Z²-49, Z²-67, Z²-251 and Z²-800 and come with a heavy-duty continuously variable power supply with ultra-deluxe accessory packaging.
“ADK has a core value that ‘good enough’ is never good enough. When Ray Charles won five GRAMMY®️ Awards using our tube mic, we were inspired to do even better. A five year saga led to the original Z Mod. Along the way we became friends with David Bock who created the original Soundelux mics and then the highly acclaimed Bock Audio mics. It has been the thrill of a lifetime to collaborate with David on the new Z-Squared upgraded Z-Mod. He told us he could tell how serious we were about quality, and has delivered on a promise to take our flagship Z-Mods to the next level. We are thrilled to have him on the ADK design team!”

The new David Bock Z² designs are currently shipping and have an MSRP of $3,998.
