AKG C 452 EB Small Diaphragm Condenser Microphone
The AKG C-451E is a newly developed Condenser Microphone System using audio frequency circuitry with Field Effect Transistors.
Low noise level, extremely high reliability and life-long stability are inherent features of the C-451E. Low current consumption at low voltage and Phantom circuit powering permits feeding the microphone supply voltage via a standard two-conductor plus shield audio cable. In addition to the central feeding technique, directly off the d.c supply of the associated amplifier, the microphone may be powered by the AKG N-46E a.c. power supply or the AKG B-46E d.c. battery supply.
After phantom power became standard equipment in recording studios, AKG released the C452 EB version, which runs on 48-volt phantom only. Like the 451 EB, it also includes the switchable high-pass filter.
The basic C-451E system consists of the C-451E preamplifier, CK-1 miniaturized cardioid condenser microphone capsule, stand adapter and windscreen. The C-451E offers interchangeable capsules, allowing the selection of different response characteristics to adapt the microphone to various types of environments and recording applications. Its highest professional reproduction qualities makes it eminently suitable for recording studios, television and radio broadcast, motion picture studios, stage, and concert hall applications as well as high quality commercial sound installations.
