Innovative microphone system with up to nine interchangeable capsules.

The Blue Bottle Rocket Stage Two is an innovative and unique vacuum-tube microphone system for virtually any recording need. The Blue Stage Two combines low noise and superb transient response along with the Blue Bottle Caps—a choice of 9 different interchangeable microphone capsules. Change these bayonet-mount mic capsules In an instant without shutting off the power for a stunning variety of tonal characteristics and pickup patterns. Get all of the capsules and it's like having an entire Blue mic locker in a single system.

Precision-shaped and hand-assembled, the Bottle Rocket Stage Two microphone is crafted for a lifetime of use. Its transformerless Class A discrete amplifier circuit is a thoroughly modern design with a nod to the classic circuits of yesteryear. With its single hand-selected ECC88 vacuum tube, you'll hear musical detail and subtlety previously heard only in mics costing thousands more. The Blue Stage Two mic includes a custom-built flight case, a high-definition tube microphone cable, and a shockmount. You also get the innovative Powerstream power supply, which not only ensures ultra-stable performance but also features a soft-start feature that maximizes tube life and minimizes startup time.
