Description
Large diaphragm studio microphone based on C414 capsule. Cardioid only.
The AKG C214 is a large diaphragm studio microphone for professionals looking for a cost-effective alternative to the C414 that still offers outstanding performance.
From the Manufacturer:
The C214 professional large-diaphragm condenser microphone has been designed as a cost-effective alternative to the high-end C414 family. Like the C414, the C214 offers a supreme one-inch capsule on an integrated suspension to reduce mechanical noise. A switchable 20dB attenuation pad allows recording of loud sources of up to 156dB SPL. A switchable bass-cut filter allows close-up recording with almost no proximity effect. The C214 captures sound by combining one capsule of the legendary C414 dual-capsule system and the patented AKG Back-Plate Technology, resulting in an outstanding performance close to the famous C414 XLII.

- AKG’s legendary 1” edge-terminated large diaphragm sound
