{"product_id":"c104","title":"AKG C104 Large-diaphragm Cardioid Condenser Microphone","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe AKG C104 is a large-diaphragm cardioid condenser microphone built for detailed studio and broadcast capture, from close-miked electric guitar cabinets to spoken voice. Its combination of low self-noise and high headroom makes it a practical first condenser for project studios and a dependable utility mic for engineers who need clean, uncoloured results without careful gain management.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe capsule uses a plastic foil diaphragm nickel-sputtered on one side, a construction that prevents shorting to the back electrode even when the microphone is driven at extremely high sound pressure levels. The cardioid pattern gives predictable off-axis rejection for tracking in untreated rooms and for lectern or voice-over work where room reflections and monitor bleed need controlling. Bodies are manufactured from 100% recycled PIR metal, with accessories and fully recyclable packaging engineered to the same sustainability brief.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge-diaphragm cardioid condenser capsule for consistent on-axis detail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNickel-sputtered single-sided diaphragm resists shorting at extreme SPL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandles up to 143 dB SPL without perceptible distortion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtremely low noise floor for quiet sources, whispers and ambient detail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody made from 100% recycled PIR metal with recyclable packaging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eWell suited to studio tracking, broadcast and podcast voice, education and corporate AV recording, and rehearsal-room documentation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AKG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58425457606959,"sku":"C104","price":299.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/2210\/2319\/files\/C104-1.jpg?v=1788470097","url":"https:\/\/audioconnect.co.nz\/products\/c104","provider":"Audio Connect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
