Does anyone know where I might find a replacement element for an
Electro-Voice 664 microphone? It's a vintage mike.



Nope. EV no longer has elements. The coils on these get bent and then
go open. As far as I know, nobody can rebuild dynamic mike coils.



Have tried electrovoice.com, no luck. Many vintage mike websites, but no
one selling elements.



They don't exist. Spend $50 and get a new one at a hamfest.

It probably won't fit and it is not "original" but I have used the
receiver element from those old
black "500 type" telephones. The receiver makes a good dynamic
microphone with an
impedance of ( I think) about 500 Ohms.
