“The C480B is a pencil-mic FET preamp with a transformerless output stage. Part of AKG’s ULS series, it was designed for low self-noise (9-11dBA) and high dynamic range (120+dB).

It accepts at least four of AKG’s ULS-series capsules, three of which are identical except for pickup pattern. All have 15mm-diameter diaphragms made of gold-coated plastic foil (presumably Mylar).

The preamp body has a 3-position high-pass filter:

• Flat
• -12dB/octave @ 70Hz
• -12dB/octave @ 150Hz

A second switch provides access to a -10dB preattenuation pad. This switch also has a +6dB position.

The C480 B Combo is a combination of C480 B pre-amp and the CK61 ULS capsule. It offers excellent audio quality and maximum flexibility. The electronic circuitry of the C480 B comes with a transformerless output stage and assures completely linear transfer characteristics across the entire frequency range, while achieving self-noise figures close to the theoretical minimum. The CK61 capsule is characterized by a ruler-flat frequency response and an unmatchable consistent cardioid polar pattern. It is the ideal choice for critical recording and live-sound applications where consistent suppression of off-axis sound is an important requirement. The CK61 ULS is widely used in broadcast and recording studios as well as on stages worldwide.” is characterized by a ruler-flat frequency response and an unmatchable consistent cardioid polar pattern.”
