The sound is pure AKG, but the price is far below what you’d expect for a premium European large-diaphragm studio condenser microphone. Thanks to its innovative transducer design, budget-conscious performers and project studio owners now can enjoy the unmistakable sound of a high-performance AKG condenser at remarkably low cost.
The C 3000’s revolutionary new 1-inch capsule design with its gold-coated diaphragm captures the distinctive sonic character of the world’s most popular studio microphones. The C 3000 B sound is smooth, clear and open with a vibrant presence that projects voices or instruments to the front of the mix. Two switches select options for bass roll-off and preattenuation to allow you to tailor the C 3000 B for any studio or stage application.
An internal InterSpider system and external flange supports the H 100 external shock mount while an integrated windscreen minimizes plosives and other LF noise. Rugged construction and a die-cast chassis with euro-style scratch-resistant matte finish make the C 3000 B a studio mic that is built to handle the rigors of touring. Three-year warranty.
