CharterOak S700 for Voiceover?

How did we miss this one?
(and who is that dude?)

The CharterOak Acoustic Devices S700 is a front address, cardioid, solid-state condenser microphone. The microphone is delivered in a fight case, with its shock mount and is extremely well suited for broadcast applications.

The CharterOak S 700 uses the side terminated 1.00" gold sputtered Mylar S-3 type capsule, pure class-A head amplifier and a custom made output transformer. Its rich and particularly non-sibilant eq, and cardioid pick up pattern make it a perfect choice for broadcast applications. The result is clean and rich sound on the voice without harshness or sibilance. The microphone is an excellent alternative to standard dynamic broadcast microphones, as it has a more detailed sound and higher output level.

Based on CharterOak’s unique S600, the S700 employs CharterOak’s series 700 type head amplifier with the S-3 type capsule used in the S600. The S700 was designed to meet the needs of broadcasters specifically, with its robust midrange, smooth and detailed top end and internal plosive filter.

“We’re responding to broadcasters who love the sound of the CharterOak E700, but find the E700, to be a bit too bulky, and would really prefer a front address microphone” says CharterOak VP Marketing.

I really would like to hear the S700 in action.
