Soyuz

Founded in 2013 by American musician, David Arthur Brown and Russian businessman, Pavel Bazdyrev, Soyuz has a unique and remarkable story and we’d like to share it with you here.

Soyuz (союз) is the Russian word for union or alliance. At Soyuz Microphones we’ve combined Russian engineering and manufacturing prowess with Western design, quality control and marketing to create products that go beyond what either culture could achieve on their own.

Most new, high-end microphones are direct copies of a few classic German or Austrian designs. Usually, they’re manufactured using modern CNC technology and thus rarely sound like the originals.

At Soyuz we use our own, original microphones designs drawn from the best that both the Russian and German microphone traditions have to offer.
We manufacture them by hand in our own facility using only manual equipment and master machinists. In this way we create microphones that are unique, with their own personalities but which have that “classic” sound that engineers and artists so value. At Soyuz we strive to create “modern classics”.
