{"product_id":"akg-3185x00010","title":"AKG C214 Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphone","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe C214 Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphone from AKG is designed as a cost-effective alternative to the high-end C414 family. Taking into account feedback from professional sound engineers who have used prior AKG models (including the C12, C12 A, C414 EB, C414 B ULS, C414 B-TL II, and C414 XLII microphone models), the C214 has been built with hand-picked components and crafted specifically for the painstaking requirements of studio recording.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInheriting the same 1-inch dual-capsule on an integrated suspension as the legendary C414, the C214 is an affordable microphone that integrates pro-level components in a single-diaphragm, cardioid-only design. Every part of the C214 has been selected for reliability and sonic accuracy. Its electronic circuitry has been redesigned for optimal dynamic range and frequency response. Its transducer element uses AKG’s patented Back-Plate technology, while its large diaphragm is gold-sputtered on one side, protecting against local shorting.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe C214 is capable of an incredible 143 dB (A-weighted) dynamic range for uncompressed, life-like transients. Its edge terminated capsule delivers a detailed, up-front sound that brings out every nuance of any voice or instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis microphone can be used on stage for close-up miking for even very loud applications like drum overheads, guitar amps, or high-output brass. Thanks to its switchable 20-dB attenuation pad that lets you record loud sources of up to 156dB SPL. Its switchable bass-cut filter minimizes any proximity effects.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe C214 features an integrated capsule suspension that reduces mechanical noise and resonances for even greater sonic accuracy. The double mesh, all-metal grille protects the capsule and ensures high RF immunity without affecting acoustical performance. This microphone has a roadworthy construction quality with a modern scratch-resistant finish, a dent-resistant grille, and a gold-plated XLR-type output.\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Harman Professional, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51124685734072,"sku":"48944","price":469.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0871\/7382\/4696\/files\/48944_AKG-C214-Large-Diaphragm-Condenser-Microphone.jpg?v=1768004363","url":"https:\/\/soundpro.com\/products\/akg-3185x00010","provider":"SoundPro","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
