The C214 professional large-diaphragm condenser microphone offers a supreme one-inch capsule on an integrated suspension to reduce mechanical noise. Recording of loud sources of up to 156dB SPL is not a problem thanks to the switchable 20dB attenuation pad. A bass-cut filter allows close-up recording with almost no proximity effect. The C214 combines one capsule of the legendary C414 dual-capsule system with the AKG Back-Plate Technology, resulting in an outstanding performance.
