AKG C414XLS Stereo Matched Pair of Condenser Microphones

Large-Diaphragm Multi-Pattern Condenser Microphones - Matched PairRealistic stereo recordings require microphones with outstanding performance and excellent quality. They also require performance consistency and accurate localisation from the pair of microphones. Therefore, every factory-matched pair has been created from thousands of individual microphones selected by AKG's sophisticated computer-aided matching method. The result is the highest possible correlation over the whole frequency range and virtually identical sensitivity for stunning, three-dimensional recordings.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. The microphones are selected from a large quantity of individual microphones according to the described criteria by using a proprietary computer program.Using this matched pair for stereo recordings in various techniques will provide 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).See C414XLS for technical specifications and more details.Features: Absolutely perfectly matched stereo pair thanks to AKG's sophisticated computer-aided matching method Highest possible correlation over the whole frequency range and virtually identical sensitivity Selected from thousands of individual microphones Designed, Engineered and Built in Vienna, Austria Specifications: General Audio Frequency bandwidth: 20 to 20000 Hz Sensitivity: 23 mV/Pa Equivalent Noise Level: 6 dB-A Signal to Noise: 88 dB-A Preattenuation Pad: -6, -12, -18 dB Bass Cut Filter: 160, 80, 40 Hz Electrical Impedance: 200 Ohms Recommended Load Impedance: 2200 Ohms Polar Patterns Cardiod, Figure-of-Eight, Hypercardiod, Omnidirectional, Wide Cardioid Powering Interface Voltage: 44 to 52 V Current: 4.5 mA Audio Output Type: Balanced XLR Gender: Male Contacts: 3-pin Design Finish: dark gray/silver Dimensions / Weight Length: 38 mm Width: 50 mm Height: 160 mm Net Weight: 300 g
