Shipping charge is $100 all over the world.Two complete microphones are contained within the C-220 case.  Each diaphragm is less than one inch in diameter to provide extended high frequency response. The diaphragmsare constructed from a super-thin polyester film and a microcoating of gold uniformly applied over the en-tire surface by an exclusive vacuum process. Exceptionally uniform low frequency response, and low noise is obtained by use of the premium quality Sony designed 6D-H3 tube as a cathode follower. The lower capsule assembly is attached to the microphone case while the top element can be rotated about a common axis to facilitate the various modes of operation. Scales are inscribed in both the top and bottom of the microphone case for accurate positioning of each element.
The C-220A and associated CP-5 MS power supply are normally connected by a 30-foot cable. Extension cables are available allowing the use of 200 feet of interconnecting cable between the microphone and power supply. A CP-5 MS power supply is used with the Sony C-220 Stereo Microphone. Providing the necessary operating voltages for both cathode followers. Elaborate filtering networks in both plate and filament supplies guarantee the absence of hum while solid-state rectifiers and premium quality electrolytic filter capacitors assure trouble free operation over extended periods of time. Operating controls at the power supply include, polar pattern controls, high and low frequency filters, matrix networks, mode and impedance selectors.
