JZ Microphones was established in 2007 in Riga by educated jeweler Juris Zarins. After 20 years of repairing Neumann, AKG, Telefunken microphones and participating in Blue and Violet microphones manufacturing he started to produce his own line of microphones.[1][2][3] The idea of JZ Microphones was to combine knowledge about recognized and well known microphones with innovations and original design solutions.
JZ Microphones produces ten microphone models, in whose creation twenty-four, patents owned by company are used. Most of the microphones are made with โโGolden dropโโ technology โ a slightly different gilding process of capsule; in result the sound is much natural and cleaner.[4][5] Also the original design of microphones differ JZ from other microphones, one of the most popular model series Black Hole unique design with hole in body makes attaching easier and also reduces unnecessary sounds.[6][7]
