Oktava is a Russian microphone and electronics manufacturer based in Tula, Russia. In the late 1990’s Oktava microphones took the world by storm and in a few short years became a top seller of microphones in the USA and world wide. Their quirky, handmade, appearance was not a hindrance to sales, in fact, it became a selling feature at a time when the vintage gear craze was only barely beginning. Handmade using vintage techniques in a vintage factory they became nicknamed “the Russian Neumann.”
