Akg C104
The AKG C104 is a large-diaphragm cardioid condenser microphone designed to deliver premium audio quality with immediate ease of use. Its high-precision cardioid capsule and transformerless, optimized FET circuitry ensure a pure, detailed, and flattering sound, whether for vocals or a wide range of sources in the studio or for content creation.
Thanks to its very wide dynamic range and low noise floor, it captures everything from powerful electric guitars to very soft vocals (whispers) with clarity and definition. It also handles high SPL levels without perceptible distortion, making it versatile for a wide variety of uses: recording, podcasting, streaming, video conferencing/gaming, or broadcasting.
In terms of design, the AKG C104 reflects a commitment to sustainability: a body made from 100% recycled PIR metal, accessories and packaging optimized to reduce environmental impact, and fully recyclable packaging.
