Frequently Asked Questions

The 4098 prioritizes even greater detail and a slightly more focused sound, while the 4041 is often preferred for a broader, more natural tone – both are excellent, it’s about the specific sonic goal.
The 32 cm gooseneck provides good flexibility, but it’s firm enough to hold its position; it’s not a super-loose, floppy design.
A clean, low-noise preamp is essential to preserve the 4098’s pristine sound; look for something with a high headroom and a neutral frequency response.
