Only the purest aluminum meeting the requirements of the German food laws, i.e. containing no lead, is used for the Pauly filter ring. Aluminium is the metal found most frequently in the earth. The raw pure light metal looks dull and silver grey because of its quickly developing layer of oxide when exposed to the air. This layer of oxide makes aluminum very corrosion-resistant at ph-values between four and nine. Furthermore, it does not possess any magnetic qualities unwanted in sound technology and is very durable.
On top of that, aluminum is more rugged, much lighter and firmer than i. e. wood, plastic or other metals. In short, it’s an ideal raw material, but expensive.
The Pauly-Adapter-Cone is made of this kind of high-purity aluminum. Ingeniously, its conical shape and mass also provide absorption of structure-born noise, optimizing the Pauly SuperScreen’s effect. The three photos at the top show various possible uses of the Adapter-Cone. It is ideal for positioning completely isolated from structure-borne noise in recording studios unwilling to make any compromise with difficult recordings. Removing the metric reduction thread enables the filter to be mounted on the standard 5/8’’ thread in the UK, U.S.A., Australia, Canada, and China.
