AKG`s new reference dynamic microphone delivers high end performance and noble sound in every studio and on every stage. The new Laminated VarimotionTM diaphragm deep-drawing process allows the diaphragm itself to be fine-tuned with no extra tuning resonators. This leads to a quantum leap in audio performance under each surrounding conditions and sound volume. D 7 creates that subtle and opened sound in all frequency ranges condenser mics are famous for, but it also has the powerful resonance from a dynamic microphone.
The D 5 dynamic vocal microphone for lead and backing vocals delivers a powerful sound even on the noisiest stage. Its frequency independent supercardioid polar pattern ensures maximum gain before feedback. The D 5 stands for a crisp sound that cuts through every mix. AKG made the first microphone diaphragm ever whose thickness varies across its diameter. The new Laminated Varimotion diaphragm deep-drawing process allows the diaphragm itself to be fine-tuned with no extra tuning resonators, leading to a quantum leap in audio performance.
The integrated high-pass filter eliminates permanent all handling noises and the new acoustical designed inner windscreen makes you feel more secure in live use. The precision metal dust filter provides a consistent objection to the diaphragm.
The dual shock mount eliminates any kind of mechanical noise for troublefree live use. The audience will hear nothing but the pristine sound of your voice! Available Versions D 5: for standard applications. D 5 S: with on/off switch.
The original inner windscreen can be replaced with the extra windscreen supplied with the microphone, this offers a clear sound for a long time. Available versions:

• Large-diaphragm dynamic microphone for bass instruments
• Dynamic microphone designed for drums and percussions, wind instruments, and guitar amps
• Extremely high SPL capability
• Patented AKG Varimotion diaphragm technology
• Classic microphone for stage and studio applications
• Custom built capsule mounting • Spring steel wire-mesh cap • Rugged all-metal body withstands typical tough handling on stage The D 112 has earned a well-deserved reputation worldwide as the best kick drum microphone ever made. Heavy-footed drummers won’t faze it, because the D 112 handles up to 160 dB SPL with no audible distortion. A specially engineered diaphragm with a very low resonance frequency maintains solid and powerful response below 100 Hz, while a narrow band presence rise at 4 kHz punches through dense mixes with little or no added EQ. The result is a kick drum sound that ideally balances precise definition and forceful impact. The D 112 is also an excellent choice for use with bass cabinets, trombones, etc. Built-in windscreen, SA 60 stand adapter included.
• UNIT
D 112
The D 40 with its solid all-metal body will stand up to the hardships of night-after-night onstage use “with a smile”. The Varimotion diaphragm deep-drawing process allows the diaphragm itself to be fine-tuned with no need for tuning resonators, leading to a quantum leap in audio performance. The transducer is protected by a sturdy wire-mesh cap and takes extremely high sound pressure levels with ease. An integrated stand adapter and standard H 440 mounting bracket for snare drums, tom-toms, etc. make the D 40 a highly versatile tool for use on drums, percussions, wind instruments, and guitar amps.

Responding to growing demand, AKG has recreated the sonic performance of the legendary C 451 EB + CK 1 combination in a modern new microphone. The new C 451 B has dramatically improved specifications and reliability. The new non-modular microphone has an extremely light diaphragm for insensitivity to handling noise, and still retains the incredible transient response of the original. The nickel-plated, all-metal chassis is attractive and provides excellent protection from RF interference and the rigors of handling. The C 451 B transformerless output section ensures it is an excellent tool for capturing transient-rich signals such as drums, percussion and acoustic guitar.

AKG’s industry-leading C 414 microphones are already a permanent fixture in the world’s biggest recording studios and a highly respected work horse for independent artists, broadcasting, and on-stage miking as well. The new C 214 is designed as a cost-effective alternative to the high-end, industry-leading C 414 family. It captures sound combining one side of the legendary C 414 dual-capsule system and AKG’s patented BackPlate Technology which results in an outstanding performance close to the famous C 414 B-XLS. Like the C 414 models, the C 214 is capable of handling the rigors of high-pressure sound such as loud brass instruments and guitar amps, with a sensitivity perfect for voice and orchestral instruments as well. Additionally, the microphone offers a 20 dB Attenuation pad, 13 dB noise floor, and a low cut switch—all in an elegant but rugged package. Additional features include an integrated suspension, a double mesh grill high RF immunity without affecting acoustics. The circuitry in the C 214 provides maximum SPL capability with minimum noise and the goldplated XLR-type output connector offers loss-free signals.

Highly flexible wireless system, easy to use and expandable for the most sophisticated applications.
Live sound Musical, opera
• Diversity receiver with all-metal case • Up to 12 channels can be used simultaneously in each frequency band • Auto Setup and Rehearsal functions for quick and easy setup • Quick infrared transmission of all frequency and setup data to the transmitter • Programmable warning functions using two-colour display backlighting to indicate critical operating conditions
The SR 450 diversity receiver is your best choice for cost-efficient, high-performance multichannel systems. Up to 12 channels can be used simultaneously within the same frequency band and even large systems will work smoothly in environments hostile to RF transmission. Being compatible with professional WMS 4000 antenna splitters, power supplies, and high quality remote antennas, the WMS 450 enables you to set up highly complex wireless systems. In Auto Setup mode, the receiver will scan the
available bands, find an interference-free channel, and transmit the related frequency data to the assigned transmitter via infrared. This technique reduces the time it takes to set up a multichannel system to a few minutes. A Rehearsal function, a programmable display clearly indicating all important system parameters, two-colour display backlighting warning the user of critical conditions from a distance, and a transmitter battery status display on the receiver enhance reliability and add to ease of use.
