The C520 is powered by 9 to 52 volts of phantom power, making it compatible with most professional audio equipment. The microphone is terminated with a standard 3-pin XLR connector for reliable and secure connections to audio systems, ensuring consistent signal transmission. The microphone also features an equivalent noise level of 31 dB-A and a signal-to-noise ratio of 63 dB-A, ensuring that the captured audio remains clean and free from interference.

Weighing only 0.06 lbs, the AKG C520 is one of the lightest head-worn microphones available, making it ideal for long-term use without causing discomfort or fatigue. The 10 ft cable provides ample reach for various performance setups, and the matte black finish gives the microphone a sleek, professional appearance. The included W44 windscreens help reduce wind noise and plosives, ensuring a cleaner, more focused sound.
