DESCRIPTION
The AKG C520L is a head-worn cardioid condenser microphone designed for vocalists who need both hands free. It places the capsule at a fixed, repeatable distance from the mouth, delivering consistent level and tone regardless of movement, making it well suited to frontmen, singing keyboardists, drummers, guitarists, dancers and backing vocalists.
The condenser capsule is chosen for wide dynamic range and clear vocal detail, while the cardioid pattern rejects stage wash, monitor spill and audience noise, giving usable gain before feedback in loud environments. The C520L terminates in a 3-pin mini XLR connector for direct connection to AKG bodypack transmitters, so it drops into an existing radio microphone system without adapters. A slim, adjustable gooseneck arm holds position once set, and the lightweight wire headband can be worn on either side to suit the performer and any in-ear or wedge monitoring arrangement.
- Head-worn condenser microphone for hands-free lead and backing vocals
- Cardioid polar pattern for effective rejection of ambient stage noise
- Wide dynamic range capsule optimised for close vocal pickup
- 3-pin mini XLR termination for use with AKG bodypack transmitters
- Adjustable gooseneck arm and lightweight headband, wearable on either side
A practical choice for live events, touring, theatre, houses of worship and hospitality venues where performers need to move freely while maintaining a consistent vocal sound.
