Hoping perhaps someone here knows of them, or the general range?
Not much on Philips microphones on the web, it seems ...

I can't remember ever having seen a Philips mic used in pro audio. So I'd
guess they only made run of the mill stuff for home tape recorder or PA
installations or comms use, etc. That's not to say they won't be OK for
some purposes. It could be of course they used another brand name for pro
mics - although they did produce pro tape recorders and audio/visual
equipment under their own name and Pye many years ago, and may still do.

Thanks for that;- the way these have been mounted on equipoise lamp bases
suggests to me an amateur having perhaps used domestic mikes creatively;-

[Oops:- unthinkingly actually typed "mike"! Must have subliminally thought of
another thread I read, where "Mike" was more crucified than just slanged off!]

But anyway, I did wonder if perchance ... oh well, I will have them in a few
days, and will find out what they are ... as for testing, not sure what to do.

Probably dynamic, in which case I have a few 'mic' inputs, but listening to
recorded sounds and comparing to my few other lightweight oddballs likely.

I'm a novice with recording - but with some reading, & oddball tapedecks, PC.
Not sure why I bought them yet; I liked them, and they turned out to be cheap.
