Brochure

In 2005 AKG launched the very first Perception models – a completely new series
of microphones showing legendary AKG sound and quality at an attractive price
level. In 2008 the new Perception Series continued this success story with four new
models. Since April 2009 the highly anticipated P 820 Tube microphone is not only
the brand-new flagship model of the Perception Series but also raises the bar in its
class of affordable tube microphones.
The P 120 USB is the very first USB-equipped microphone from AKG, offering
studio-quality sound performance without requiring any installation or drivers. With
the widespread USB standard and its ease of use, this new model allows users
without any recording experience to make professional-quality recordings from
their home. It is a real plug-and-play device enabling customers to do podcasts,
voiceovers and studio-quality rehearsal-recordings quickly and easily.
The USB is a widely known interface for audio equipment like sound cards, active
monitors and outboard equipment, which makes the P 120 USB one of the most
versatile microphones in the marketplace.
