Product Description

Matched pair of C 414 B-XLS

The matched pairs consist of two microphones that are within 1 dB to each other in sensitivity and also within 1 dB to each other in the range of 300 Hz to 8,000 Hz of the individual frequency response when used in cardioid mode and are selected from a large quantity of individual microphones using the described criteria by using a proprietary computer program.

Using this matched pair for stereo recordings utilizing various techniques will provide for a good and stable balance without frequency-dependent shifting of the stereo panorama.

The kit includes all the standard accessories of the deluxe package (excluding the PF 80) along with a stereo bar and proof of performance charts in an attractive carrying case (large Soundtool case).

414 B-XLS * High sensitivity and extremely low self noise * Five switchable polar patterns for placement and application flexibility * Two-color LEDs provide quick visual indication of selected polar pattern and output overload * Elastic capsule suspension greatly minimizes structurally-transmitted noise from chassis vibration * H 85 professional shock mount/stand adapter, PF 80 external pop filter and W 414 X external windscreen.

A reference-quality microphone especially used for accurate, beautifully-detailed pickup of any acoustic instrument.

With the introduction of the NeXt Generation C 414 B-XL models, AKG sets new benchmarks for useful features, improved technical specifications, ease of use and available accessories. All of these improvements are answers to requests from ever-demanding recording studios, broadcast stations and concert engineers, but with the basic sonic character of the legendary C 414 unaltered.

Additional features:

* High sound pressure level capability and wide dynamic range * Completely immune to electrostatic and electromagnetic interference from digital gear, computer monitors, etc. thanks to solid metal housing and transformerless output stage * Three switchable bass cut filters and three pre-attenuation pads with LEDs for quick visual indication * All switchable components operate in low impedance circuits for ultra-high reliability even in extremely humid conditions
