Announcing ADK Microphone & David Bock Z² Microphone Collaboration.
Z² is a Hand-Crafted in USA Multi-Pattern • Class A Valve/Tube Condenser Mic that is Custom
• Individually built for Each and Every Client
David (design genius behind David Bock Audio and Soundelux Microphones) has now redesigned the latest flagship Z²-Mod, the Z²(Squared series) of six tube mics that - rather than clones of classic mics, takes the vintage tone-profile and re-imagines it with exponentially better specifications, and re-purposed for the modern recording studio.
The new Z² version Z-Mod is a modified version of the original Z-Mod. Instead of off-shore metal work, the Z² is completely manufactured in the USA with American metal. Instead of an imported PCB that's populated in USA, it's an American PCB. Electronic and mechanical improvements have been made to the Z-Mod, and an Electro-Mod for original Z-Mod owners is available for low or no cost.
Vintage Mics come in a Range of Tone Colors, from Mellow to Brilliant. ADK has Re-Imagined these Signature Tone-Profiles, with Upgraded Performance and Exponentially better specifications. Beyond the plethora of clones, Z² charts new territory. Overbuilt to the Max!

The Silver Edition Suite gives you the best of all possible accessory collections. If everything in the signal-chain matters, Accu-Sound Silver Pro is audibly better than any wire we've ever tried. Silver Edition is the chef's table multi-course delight with Rycote, Hakan, and N/O stock tubes to complement the Z²® and Z-Power®. The luxurious deluxe HD tweed case keeps everything in one place and protects the Z² Mic and all the accessories. The Z² Silver Edition Suite looks as great as it sounds.
Want to invest in your accessories one or two at a time, explore the A La Carte options. After you have designed your one-of-a-kind Z² mic choose the accessories you need for your studio.
ADK Custom Z-12 is a Magic Mic!
I used it to track Kylie Minogue "Golden". I love the way the Custom Z-12 carves her voice… .

We use the Z-49 on a lot of male vocals, like Jon Foreman from Switchfoot. I couldn’t be happier with the sound! Ken Riley

Any engineer or studio in need of a no-compromise

ADK Custom Z-251
ADK has done a great job of capturing the feel and sonics of the 251 family of microphones in the opulent air and solid tone of the Z-251.
