AKG D5 S - Handheld Dynamic Vocal Microphone with Supercardioid Polar Pattern and 70Hz to 20kHz Frequency Response in Dark Blue Finish

The AKG D5 S is a dynamic handheld microphone designed for precise audio capture in live performances, rehearsals, and studio environments. Featuring a supercardioid polar pattern, the D5 S excels at isolating the sound source and rejecting unwanted noise from the sides and rear. This makes it an ideal choice for artists and audio engineers in environments like clubs, concert venues, and houses of worship, where high-gain-before-feedback is critical. The microphone's laminated Varimotion diaphragm ensures a frequency-independent polar pattern, providing consistent off-axis rejection across the frequency spectrum, which reduces stage bleed and ensures clear sound capture even at high volume levels.

The D5 S boasts a wide frequency response of 70 Hz to 20 kHz, allowing for accurate reproduction of various sound sources, from deep vocals to sharp, punchy snare hits. With a maximum SPL of 147 dB at 1% total harmonic distortion (THD), the D5 S can handle loud sound sources without distortion, making it versatile for both vocal performances and high-pressure sound environments. The dual-shock capsule mount minimizes handling noise, while the integrated pop filter effectively reduces plosives and wind noise, ensuring clean audio capture during performances.

In addition to its excellent sound quality, the D5 S features a noiseless on/off switch that allows performers to mute the mic silently between songs or performances, preventing any disruptive noise. Built with a rugged die-cast housing and a spring-steel, wire-mesh grille, the D5 S is durable enough to withstand the demands of live shows and extended use. The microphone also includes a stand adapter and storage bag, making it easy to transport and set up for performances. With its robust construction and reliable performance, the AKG D5 S is a perfect choice for vocalists and musicians seeking high-quality sound reproduction on stage or in the studio.
