The combination of a crisp top end, robust construction and packaging and, of course, excellent price, is hard to beat. Overview As you would expect, there are plenty of similarities. First up, the capsule is the same one-inch single large diaphragm, centre-tapped design with fixed cardioid pattern. Also familiar are the 10dB pad, 100Hz optional low-cut filter and transformer-based output stage. But beyond that, the requirements of the valve design mean different internal electronics. 與2200A相同的1吋大震膜，心型指向， 10dB衰減， 100Hz低切濾波以及變壓輸出。 The valve is a SE-badged ECC83A and the mic power and audio is handled via a seven-core cable from the SE T1 external PSU. You'll find a standard XLR audio output on the PSU unit. 使用sE自家的ECC83A真空管 From a technical perspective, the various differences haven't affected the frequency response too much, with the same characteristic lift as the 2200A around the 10kHz mark. However, the SE2200T's self-noise, sensitivity and maximum SPL handling have been improved along the way. 和2200A在頻率表現上類似，但自體噪音，靈敏度以及最大承受音壓都有所改進。 It may not be the most visually-stylish mic out there, but you can't fault the build quality of the 2200T, and when you're done recording, everything packs away into a sturdy flight case. It's always good to see a robust suspension cradle thrown in for free - the only thing that may annoy some is the lack of a standard mic clip. 或許在外型上不是最有型，但製造品質無人能敵，所有元件都可收納於堅固的外箱。
Sound聲音表現 Sonically, the 2200T has a modern sound with a slightly-hyped top end. This makes it a great general-purpose mic, but particularly good for vocals, acoustic guitars and anything where you want to add a bit of 'air' at source. Like all cardioid mics, the pattern is frequency dependent, and for mid-range sounds this is pretty broad, narrowing in the top-end. In use, we found this made positioning easy, which is ideal in a budget mic. 聲音現代，適合一般用途，尤其適合想要增加人聲、木吉他以及其他樂器高頻的Air，中頻很寬廣，往高頻漸漸收窄，使得麥克風擺位相對容易。 As far as the tube aspect is concerned, it's the transients that really benefit, with the tube circuit rounding off and introducing subtle harmonic distortions. Inevitably this is content-dependent, but you'll spot benefits on vocal articulations and plosives and pretty much any percussive sounds, plus a more rounded performance with low frequencies. 敏銳的諧波失真，有顆粒的聲音，更圓潤的低頻 Overall, the results are definitely more coloured than a solid-state design, but that can be desirable. If we were planning to use the mic predominantly for vocals we would definitely opt for the valve version ahead of the solid-state SE2200A. However, for drum overheads or room mics, on sound alone the SE2200T would be more up our street. Verdict Overall, the SE2200T has the same excellent combination of features and value as the 2200A, but the valve design means a more engaging sound. Like the 2200A, there's no single astonishing thing about this mic - the combination of features and price are the selling point. The added complexity of using a valve PSU can be awkward at times, but on the upside, you know the underlying design has a good track record. It's very difficult not to conclude that this is a great buy. Verdict
All the sonic tuning of its sibling but with extra colouration.
