AKG – The Story of a Legendary Brand KEY TO PRODUCT NAME PREFIXES AND SUFFIXES AKG model designations contain letters that provide a key to important features of the product. This alphabetical list is an overview of what these letters mean: (P) MICROPHONE, HEADPHONE, AND SYSTEM PREFIXES: (P) ACCESSORY PREFIXES: (S) MICROPHONE, HEADPHONE, AND SYSTEM SUFFIXES: “C” Microphone with condenser transducer, e.g., C 12, C 414 B-XLS, etc. “A” Any type of adapter, e.g., A 48 V, A 61, A 91, etc.
STUDIO/BROADCAST/STAGE STUDIO/BROADCAST/STAGE C 12 VR VINTAGE REISSUE TUBE MICROPHONE Production of the legendary C 12 ceased in 1963, and over the years, it became a highly sought-after collector’s item and prized recording instrument because of its exquisite sound. The new C 12 VR is a reincarnation of this spectacular microphone. The new C 12 VR is true to the original C 12’s acoustical specifications with subtle refinements made possible by modern electronics and manufacturing technology.
STUDIO/BROADCAST/STAGE STUDIO/BROADCAST/STAGE 4 C 4000 B C 4500 B-BC C 3000 B C 2000 B C 1000 S The C 4000 B represents the latest in AKG's long heritage of true 1", large diaphragm, premium microphones. The capsule has been carefully tuned to preserve the integrity of the source while offering mild compliments in the high frequencies.
STUDIO/BROADCAST/STAGE STUDIO/BROADCAST/STAGE C 451 B / C 451 B/ST C 568 B SHOTGUN MICROPHONE D 230 CK 77 WR/C 577 WR C 417 LAPEL “MICROMIC” CK 55 L For more than twenty years, the AKG C 451 with the CK 1 condenser capsule was a standard item on tour riders for sound companies and required by leading engineers for studio projects. When it was discontinued in 1993, there was still a big demand for this microphone.
STUDIO/BROADCAST/STAGE STUDIO/BROADCAST/STAGE CK 97-CVR CK 97-0 AKG BLUE LINE The AKG Blue Line is a moderately-priced modular condenser microphone system with extraordinary performance and flexibility. With eight different microphone capsules and lots of accessories to choose from, you can customize a Blue Line system to get perfect results on any recording or sound reinforcement job.
STUDIO/BROADCAST/STAGE C 535 EB The C 535 EB has the clean, open characteristic of AKG’s best studio condensers, enhanced by a 2 dB rise between 7 and 12 kHz to project vocals in front of the mix. An integral four-position switch tailors output level and bass roll-off for a variety of uses. A sharp LF cut at the full output level reduces pops and handling noise in vocal applications, while a more gradual roll-off at the reduced output is ideal for most instrument applications.
STUDIO/BROADCAST/STAGE STUDIO/BROADCAST/STAGE EMOTION SERIES, “THE SOUND THAT ROCKS” The Emotion series of microphones utilizes one of AKG’s latest patented technologies. The Varimotion System allows AKG to produce a diaphragm of varying thickness in a single press mold. By doing so AKG has almost completely overcome the need for tuning resonators so that the microphone’s sonic characteristics can now be tuned at the capsule.

Placing the small ultra-light C 411 on or near the bridge will reproduce a clear and uncolored sound without changing the balance of the instrument.
INSTALLED SOUND INSTALLED SOUND C 562 CM C 562 BL C 562 BL BOUNDARY MICROPHONE C 562 CM BOUNDARY MICROPHONE Both versions of the C 562 offer the inherent advantages of boundary layer design: 6 dB higher sensitivity and virtual elimination of comb filter effects when installed on reflective surfaces plus extended and flattened frequency response. Both versions are omnidirectional in their hemispheres and are therefore essentially insensitive to structurally transmitted noise.
INSTALLED SOUND INSTALLED SOUND DISCREET ACOUSTICS MODULAR-SERIES HM 1000 The Discreet Acoustics Modular-Series is a new modular back electret microphone system. It comprises five capsule modules and six installation modules (five gooseneck and one hanging module) which can be used in any combination. The modules screw together for extremely stable and reliable connections.
SOUND INSTALLED SOUND SYSTEMS AS 4 + 3 AS 8/AS 8 TC CHM 21 SOUND PROCESSING RANGE AS 4 + 3 CGN 321 E CGN 521 E CGN 323 E Automatic mixer with four gated microphone inputs and three line level inputs. The microphone inputs provide switchable 24 V phantom power and an integrated, adjustable compressor/leveler that compensates for variations in level due to variations in working distance.
SOUND SOUND SYSTEMS SYSTEMS CS 2 CONFERENCE SYSTEM AKG Conference Systems are fully modular and therefore highly flexible, allowing users to create a custom system for any conference application. From microphone capsules to power supplies, designers will find exactly the right components for every type of conference system. AKG Conference Systems use standard single-cable wiring for quick and easy setup and takedown of mobile systems.

HEADPHONES HEADPHONES K 171 STUDIO K 240M PROFESSIONAL HEADPHONES The K 171 Studio combines the benefits of a closed-back design with the lightweight and comfort of supra-aural headphones. The K 171 Studio is an excellent choice for DJ and broadcast applications where no sound can bleed from the headphones into live microphones. The closedback, loud and rugged design gives the K 171 a different low-frequency character and maintains its comfort and flexibility.
HEADPHONES K 141M PROFESSIONAL HEADPHONES A proven”workhorse” throughout the recording industry, K 141M serves as the reference standard for supra-aural (on-the-ear) monitor headphone designs. A small coupling volume in the ear cup, combined with an “integrated semi-open” venting system behind the transducer, gives the K 141M its trademark sound: punchy, accurate and crisply defined.
