AKG C7 - Handheld Condenser Vocal Microphone with Supercardioid Polar Pattern and 20Hz to 20kHz Frequency Response in Matte Blue Finish

The AKG C7 Reference Condenser Vocal Microphone is a high-performance, handheld microphone designed for capturing vocals with premium studio-quality sound, making it perfect for live stage performances, theater productions, rehearsals, and other vocal applications. This microphone is engineered to deliver crystal-clear, sparkling high-end vocals with a supercardioid polar pattern, ensuring maximum isolation and minimal background noise. The C7 is powered by 48V phantom power and allows lead and background vocals to shine through in the most demanding environments.

At the heart of the C7 is its custom-tuned supercardioid condenser capsule, hand-selected for optimal performance. This capsule produces pristine clarity and exceptional high-frequency response, capturing every nuance of your voice. The C7 microphone is capable of handling extremely high sound pressure levels, ensuring high fidelity even during the loudest performances. With its open-space capsule technology, the C7 offers a supercardioid pattern across the entire frequency spectrum, effectively minimizing on-stage feedback and unwanted noise.

To prevent handling noise and vibrations, the C7 is equipped with a proprietary mechano-pneumatic shock absorber suspension. This suspension system isolates the microphone capsule from physical vibrations, preventing any unwanted noise from cluttering your performance. The C7 also features a multi-layer pop noise protection system, which includes a specially engineered mic grill, dense foam beneath the grill, and a mesh layer surrounding the capsule. This combination provides excellent protection against plosives, ensuring that your vocal sound remains clean and clear.

Built to withstand the rigors of live performances and demanding tour schedules, the C7 boasts a rugged zinc alloy construction and a durable spring steel grill. The 24-carat gold-plated capsule ensures protection against moisture and corrosion, making it highly reliable in various environments. Whether you're on stage or in a rehearsal space, the C7 delivers worry-free, premium vocal reproduction, so you can focus entirely on your performance.
