AKG C151 Cardioid Condenser Microphone

The AKG C151 is a professional-grade small-diaphragm condenser microphone engineered to deliver exceptional sonic clarity for modern studio tracking, live broadcasting, and high-fidelity content creation. Built around a precision 16mm electret condenser diaphragm and a transformerless FET output circuit, it captures transient-rich audio with an ultra-low noise floor and broad dynamic range.

Its tight cardioid polar pattern excels at isolating target sound sources from ambient noise, making it ideal for acoustic instruments, drum overheads, and untreated home studios. The eco-conscious chassis is crafted from 100% recycled metals, seamlessly integrating into any setup requiring balanced 48V phantom power.
