This mic adds a warmth and harmonic distortion that is unparalled. Stop wondering if you should buy two, you won't be disappionted. Matt , You hit this one out of the park.

I love this mic. I spent many hours researching after facing disappointment with the boxy/dull sounding mics I have. It sounds phenomenal on vocals and guitar so far. It has a very nice character to it and has elevated the quality of my recordings to a new level that I didn’t know was possible at this price range. Matt was incredibly welcoming and answered all of my questions and I’m happy to say this was the right mic for me!

This mic sounds CLEAN! It picks up my voice without bass / low-end added. I'm not a pro when it comes to mics, but this mic sounds a lot more 'neutral' (flat) and closer to what my voice actually sounds like. I use it for rock vocals.

First of all Matt was awesome at helping me select mics for my studio that matched what I was trying to do musically. I like the Mini K67x on Electric and Acoustic guitar, Female Vocals, and Backing Vocals. The Transformer is nice when you saturate the signal. I like the sound this mic has a vintage air to it, there is less low end than the Mini K87 and less Midrange than the Mini K47/47x. This mic is good on most sources and is currently rigged in my vocal booth while I have a Mini K87 in my main recording room for talkback, layering lead vocals and bass heavy instruments. Thanks Matt & Roswell Pro Audio. My mics shipped next day locally within Sonoma County so that was great service. The custom blue finish I couldn't resist and looks way nicer. We put a silver dot in the mic port to let us know which was the 67x and which was the 87. They both sound very nice through my mixing console direct into Pro Tools, very nice mics. I can't wait to put them through my new vocal chain (WA 73 EQ/BLA Bluey 1176 Clone/Tascam Model 12 Mixer - Pro Tools).

Love this 67x! I mostly record vocals and acoustic guitar in my studio, and this thing sounds great on both! Haven't picked up another microphone since I opened the box!

The Mini K67x is designed to be a tubeless tube style transformer mic [x in the name means transformer] this mic will sound like the U67, 251, or the C800G/WA8000. There is a frequency response very similar to their mini K87 which is a U87 based mic, natural frequency response with transformer harmonic saturation. I like this on acoustic guitar, female vocals, male vocals, overheads, piano and electric guitar amps. It excells where you need some top end detail out of a very dark mic with a natural response. I have only gotten to demo spoken word so far but I love this mic. It will best mics many times more expensive even with tubes. This mic is tubeless. Enjoy!

The K67x was used today in a hobbiest studio on an acoustic guitar, and will be used later for violin and vocals. It's a gem. Smooth and easier than many in It's class to "get right".

Before I owned one myself, I'd used a K67x on a home session, capturing a vocal I was certain was the keeper. I had the opportunity during a subsequent studio session to record a vocal for the same song with a vintage Neumann U67. As much as I love the U67, the Roswell was clearly the right mic for the job in this case.
Besides vocals, I've been using it on acoustic and electric guitars. We're mid-construction of a basement studio and I look forward to soon trying the K67 on drums.
I have a K87 as well and I like to use, say, the 67 for lead vox and the 87 for harmonies (or vice versa, depending on the song.) Gorgeous-sounding mics. (And the custom Deep Purple finish was something I couldn't resist!)
Max J.
Amazing. Sounds just as good as mics like 4x the price!
Rex B.
Very nicely made, heavy and solid. Love the cut away shock mount.
When I first tested it on vocal and acoustic guitar, I plugged it directly into my TC interface preamp. I thought it sounded good, but not what I expected.
My impression was that it sounded like a first generation c414 with a 67 capsule. A bit gritty.
However, when I plugged it into my API clone pre (from a well-known Texas manufacturer) it came to life! WOW! Very impressive. Big, phat, 3d, smooth deep and present all the same time! Very plosive resistant and not sibilant at all. Beautiful vocal sound!
I now have a different opinion of the 67x than my initial impression.
Through a high quality preamp, it sounds, to my ear, somewhere between a U67 and a U47, and way more tubey (tubish?) then it did through the interface pre. If I didn't know what microphone I was hearing, I would assume that it was a tube Neumann or Telefunken.
I could not be more impressed with the sound of this microphone! An amazing bargain. The Mini K67x will be a go to choice from now on. Fantastic on every source I've tested it on. Just make sure you test these Roswell microphones through a high quality preamp before you make a judgment. They are top quality and deserve a top quality pre!

I got these K67s on the advice of Warren Huart and Matt McGlynn. I am very pleased with performance of these mics. I've used them on the Steinway grand as well as drum kit overheads and they really shine in both applications. Thank you Roswell for making mics that are so useful and affordable.

From ordering to delivery the process was seamless.
I asked the company a question prior to purchasing and received an immediate response which gave me confidence in the whole process. Once received, the microphone far surpassed my expectation, it is well-built and finished, and sounds exactly as promised. I can't wait to spend more time behind this microphone!
In a world of impersonal services, and generic products, this company stands out.
Marley B.
Wonderful microphone. Used on vocals so far and I've never had a microphone where the vocal recording could easily not be touched in mixing! love it!
Shane P.
The Mini k67x is smooth and rich. Adds texture to everything. The deep purple looks bad ass. It’s made with quality parts and craftsmanship by passionate people. Price is right. What more can I say?
Nicholas B.
Snagged this for a colored complement to my K47s. I was hoping for that “tube without a tube” sound this thing is going for… and man does it deliver! This thing produces some really nice, warm low end.
Compared to an LDC easily 2X-3X the price, it was obvious how HUGE this mic sounds. Next to my $1400 tube mic, it sounds almost identical.
I paired it with my Mini K47 on a few instruments for fun, and they actually complemented each other quite well, with the Mini K67x adding some warmth and body to the Mini K47’s crisp clarity. Can’t wait to throw it on EVERYTHING just to see what it can do.
Thanks Roswell!

Absolutely phenomenal microphone and company as a whole!
Will be buying from Roswell again. Keen to expand my collection with the Collares!
Aaron D.
Awesome sound on everything!
Maxwell P.
Had a vocal session last night, with a lot of dynamic range and a fair amount of full on screaming. Usually I would go with a dynamic mic on those sessions but I tried the K67x. The saturation was fantastic!
Sidney W.
Fantastic sounding mic.
Alex V.
This microphone spills warmness all around. Tried the mic at different preamp gain levels and it was always great, it never dissapointed. It has a wide sweet spot, because is a point and record kind of mic. Provides really warm high frequencies that were send by gods, and takes really well the eq's, and i repeat, REALLY WELL. The shockmount: solid, I want more of these for my other microphones. Very happy with my mini k67x!!!
Todd Y.
Only had for couple weeks but after comparing to 3 other 67 clones I have, It's making recording and mixing so much easier. Definitely a favorite, tried it with other male singers and they chose it over my other mics and I have a well stocked mic locker. Wish I'd known about this before I bought the others could have saved over 4 grand. Really makes vocals pop to the front of mix. Initially intended for vocals but after testing it to record acoustic guitar I was amazed at how good it makes the acoustic sound, plus I don't have to EQ anywhere near what I did and uses less gain on preamps. Everything that's been recorded with it sounds so balanced and up front no muddiness or harsh bright shrill. Now I have to try the MINI K47 see how much more I've over spent. Keep up the excellent work Roswell.
Jeff H.
YES!
Sounds great on acoustic guitars, resonators and vocals! My new go to...
Cheers,
Jeff

I finally had a chance to use the K67x on a session this weekend and I was blown away. So was the artist. He said "that's the first mic that's made me like how my voice sounded."
And I have a lot of nice mics.
Mark A.
Just tried this mic for the first time: bringing it up through channel 14 of my vintage Quad Eight Pacifica - using a Warm Audio WA76 to bring it a little closer. Fantastic! I can't say enough about this mic - it seems to capture the nuances of my vocal better than anything I've ever tried. I'll be trying it on another male vocal this week, along with the MiniK47 and Minik87.
So far, I am extremely impressed with the sound, build quality and design of this microphone.
Christopher K.
Absolutely love this mic for vocals. It is natural sounding without being overly colored. Somehow the 67x lets the vocal track sit in the mix better than any mic I have tried...no bumps in terms of frequencies and almost sounds like a touch of compression...much less to do when it comes to mixing.
Doug C.
Sounded great as single room mic and single overhead on drums, well balanced. Gave it a try in the camper with the battery amp, certainly didn't sound like it wasn't a regular amp, sounded better than in person.
Steve B.
I have the mini k47s and a 67x. I love them all. Really liking the 67x on my voice as a different color to the 47. It is also surprisingly good on bass. I didn’t expect that.
Steven D.
Love this mic - especially for the price! It adds a wonderful color in the palate of mics I use on a regular basis. Especially love it on vocals.
Carol C.
I love using this mic to record my instrument. The sound is natural and warm, and represents the true voice of my instrument.
Here is a video where I used mini K67x to record:

I did exhaustive testing and was very pleased with the sound and how it captures my voice, so much so that I sold my TLM 103! Also to be noted the mic is very quiet and I love the shockmount.
CHRIS C.
Used it for the horn section. I was taken back how much color, clarity and some decent depth it gave for both the Trombone and trumpet. I would have used another mic, but the K67 was way better. This thing is already surprising me! Looking forward to more fun!
Carlton L.
Great sparkle and clarity with real girth and power. Great on vocals and acoustic guitar so far. This is my new favourite tool!
Federico B.
I've never recorded with a real vintage U67, but from what I've heard about the legend, this mini k67x is a great tribute. So far I've only used it on voice. It is a microphone with character. I found that it has a different "relationship" with the preamps I normally use: maybe it gives a hotter signal. Knowing how to play with that feature it becomes a magnificent option that distinguishes it from other mics. Very different from its cousin, the mini k47. I commend Roswell for the heart that goes into their products. I think my next step is going for the mini k87.
