Review & Description

From direct RCA* lineage comes the best of the vintage style ribbon sound. Handcrafted entirely in the US, the JRS-34-P combines the best attributes of vintage and modern technologies to create a high-quality ribbon microphone ideally suited for music and voice. The JRS-34-P, like other passive ribbon microphones, requires a high-gain preamp -or a Cloud Microphones Cloudlifter product. Included is a beautiful handcrafted wooden box and a microfiber mic cover, designed to properly store and clean the microphone. Designed in collaboration with Stephen Sank, the Cloud ribbon mics were given the model number prefix JRS in homage to the late Jon R. Sank, Stephen Sank's father (1934-1998). Known for his work with RCA that produced legendary microphones such as the BK-11 and BK-10A, the senior Sank succeeded RCA's Harry Olson as the guiding force behind the company's continuing development of ribbon microphones. Having studied alongside his father since the age of 10, Stephen Sank's efforts in conjunction with Cloud build upon this same legacy. Each JRS-34 ribbon is cut, corrugated, and installed by hand in precisely the same fashion as prescribed by Olson. New ideas expand the performance capabilities of the blueprint as well, bringing the design into the 21st century with the addition of transformers by CineMag Inc., rounded magnets, internal spring mounted suspension, and more. *RCA is a registered trademark of Radio Corporation of America.
