AKG C 451 B (used) Small Diaphragm Microphone Revisits a Legend


Very clean example of this popular mic. Comes with original case and swivel mount.

Serviced, with warranty.

AKG's C451 was one of the all-time great studio condenser microphones. Though the original C451 mic ended production many years ago, it's still an extremely popular staple in studios all over the world.

The enduring popularity of the C451 inspired AKG to bring this mic back in the C451B. Sonically identical to the original, which featured the much-acclaimed CK-1 capsule, the new C451B is incredibly precise and accurate. of its most common applications is for drum overheads, and many engineers say there's nothing quite like it for mic'ing cymbals - the metallic "crash" comes through brilliantly.

The capsule is permanently fixed to the preamp to increase overall stability under mechanical stress. It includes a switchable preattenuation pad to increase the mic's SPL capability. A switchable highpass filter at 75 Hz or 150 Hz prevents low-end distortion, while the C451B's all metal body provides excellent protection from RF interference. This microphone makes a great addition to any professional studio or recording set-up
