AKG C214

The AKG C214 offers a high-quality recording experience, thanks to its large 1-inch diaphragm that delivers clear and detailed audio. This microphone is designed to capture every nuance of a performance, making it suitable for vocals, acoustic instruments, and even overhead drum miking. The C214’s switchable 20dB attenuator and bass-cut filter make it versatile enough to handle high sound pressure levels (up to 156 dB SPL) and reduce low-end rumble.

The robust all-metal body ensures durability and reduces mechanical noise, while the integrated suspension system minimizes vibrations from handling and stand noise. The cardioid polar pattern provides excellent off-axis rejection, ensuring that the primary sound source is captured with precision and minimal interference from ambient sounds.
