Despite looking like the offspring of a Sony C48 and Sony C38B, the F-V300 is actually a dynamic microphone. It’s next to impossible to find one of these mics, and even harder to find any information on it. With only two clues to go by - the first being its unusually higher-than-pro and lower-than-consumer output impedance of 1K and the second being its model number (it appears as though all of Sony's Japanese karaoke mics start with “F-V”) - I am almost positive that the F-V300 was Sony’s flagship karaoke microphone. Karaoke is taken very seriously in Japan, and this may very well be the king of all karaoke mics. This is all conjecture, I actually have no idea. But it’s a really cool mic, sounds great on kick drums and guitar amps, and is a favorite among our studio’s engineers.
