AKG C451 B Reference small-diaphragm condenser microphone

One for the road

for drums, percussion, acoustic guitar and strings

With its airy sound, high overload limit and improved engineering details, the AKG C451 B continues the success story of this legend. The roadworthy design around the handcrafted capsule and the low-noise preamp electronics ensure impressive results even under very harsh conditions.

Responding to growing demand, AKG decided to make the AKG C451 B with the same acoustic performance as the popular original AKG C451 EB + CK 1, with dramatically improved specifications. Using an extremely light diaphragm, the new AKG C451 B is almost totally insensitive to handling noise. Other features include an all-metal body for excellent protection from RF interference and high reliability for excellent results under almost all conditions.

The AKG C451 B condenser mic is an excellent tool for accurately capturing signals rich in transients such as drums, instruments with a percussive sound, acoustic guitar, or for overhead miking.
