The
AKG Perception 170 Small Diaphragm Microphone is an ideal choice for capturing vocals, instruments and speaker cabinets in recording and sound reinforcement situations. The small diaphragm capsule features a cardioid polar pattern which greatly minimizes off-axis noise and feedback from nearby speakers, instruments, etc. The flat 20 to 20kHz frequency response ensures pristine audio reproduction and the -20dB Pad switch maximizes headroom and minimizes distortion from transient (peak) audio.
Features
- Lightweight diaphragm
- Transformerless electronics
- Rugged all-metal body and robust design
- Cardioid polar pattern
- Switchable attenuation pad
