Description:

Time-proven sound of an AKG large-diaphragm microphone.

Its large 1 inch diaphragm cardioid pick-up pattern delivers a full 20Hz-20kHz frequency response and  will capture every nuance of any voice or instrument.

It can be used in loud situations where the volume is as high as 145dB, thanks to a switchable pad on the mic that will lower the volume -10dB before it arrives at the interface. If you need to place the Perception 200 close to a bass-heavy singer or instrument, the mic has a low-frequency roll-off switch. It lowers the volume 12 dB-per-octave beginning at 300Hz to minimize boominess.

It comes with a full-size studio shockmount that eliminates mic stand vibration from being picked up on the recording.

It includes a hardshell road case to protect the mic from damage.

Backed by AKG's generous 2-year parts and labor warranty!

Because this microphone is a condenser, it requires phantom power!!

The AKG Perception 200 is commonly use for these recording studio situations:

  • Vocals
  • Acoustic Instruments (Guitars, Banjos, Pianos, Upright Bass etc)
  • Orchestral Instruments (Strings, Woodwinds, Brass, Percussion etc)
  • Room Mics to catch sound reflections
  • Drum Overheads, Toms
  • Guitar and Bass Amps (Extremely loud noises will damage condenser mics)
