"The classic C800G is the only tube microphone in the world equipped with a semiconductor active cooling system that results in a higher signal-to-noise ratio compared to most other tube microphones." (Matrixproaudio. n.d.). The C-800G is designed for the highest possible sound reproduction quality. In an interview, popular producer 'Dr Dre' talked about the C-800G, saying, "I like my vocals to sound 'crystal, I use the Sony C800-G for vocals because it has a clean sound, and about 85% of the people that get behind it sound great. My main objective is that the vocal sound is present and clean and ultimately does not distort. I get the sound I want out of the EQ on the SSL. We've used it forever and have made many hits on it, including 50s 'In Da Club'." (Whatgear. 2021.). "It’s also famed for something it doesn’t have: noise. This is partly on account of its construction – featuring a two-part aluminium body that’s specially designed to prevent acoustic vibrations and resonances from reaching the capsule" (Dan, S. 2020). This means that artists can get crystal clear recordings and use many different ranges of sound with this microphone, without even a hint of shrillness.
