AKG C451B/ST Condenser Microphones (Stereo Pair)
The AKG C451B/ST Condenser Microphones are the perfect choice for any application where sounds, particularly their transient content, need to be captured with maximum accuracy. This matched pair features hand-crafted fixed capsules and low-noise preamp electronics for a bright and detailed sound.
The AKG C451B/ST Condenser Microphones are perfect twins of the reference small-diaphragm condenser microphone. With its airy sound, high overload limit and improved engineering details, the AKG C451 B continues the success story of its predecessor, the legendary C451 EB + CK1 capsule. The roadworthy design around the handcrafted capsule and the low-noise pre-amp electronics ensure impressive results even under very harsh conditions. Selected from thousands of individual microphones, both microphones of the matched pair show a maximum variance of 1 dB at the frequency response and have identical sensitivity.
