• New AKG condenser microphones debut: C104 / C114 / C151

  

  2026/01/16

  From AKG—makers of high-grade professional microphones and headphones—come three new condenser microphones. Delivering clear capture via transformerless FET circuitry, a low-noise design, and high-SPL handling, they shine across a wide range of applications, from streaming and podcasts to studio recording and broadcast.
  
  C104 is a cardioid condenser microphone with a 22 mm large-diaphragm capsule. Its precise cardioid capsule and optimized transformerless FET circuit render vocal and narration detail—down to breath nuances—with clarity. With a high-headroom design supporting a maximum SPL of 143 dB, it handles high-level sources and wide dynamics with stability. Ideal for quality-focused recording in streaming, podcasts, and video production.
  
  C114 is a multi-pattern condenser microphone featuring a 26 mm large diaphragm in a dual-diaphragm configuration. You can switch among cardioid, omnidirectional, and bidirectional patterns, flexibly covering vocal work, acoustic instruments, and room-mic duties. Its edge-terminated capsule, carrying forward the design philosophy of AKG classics like the C12 and C414, achieves silky highs and a well-balanced tone. With maximum SPL handling up to 145 dB, it excels in diverse recording environments.
  
  C151 is a cardioid condenser microphone equipped with a 16 mm small-diaphragm capsule. The small-diameter capsule is tuned to naturally capture fast-transient sources, delivering crisp, vivid detail. With a high-headroom design supporting up to 147 dB SPL, it covers everything from the delicate nuances of acoustic instruments and percussion to loud sources such as guitar amps.
  
  AKG (pronounced “A-K-G”) is a top, globally acclaimed brand in professional microphones and headphones. Its lineup includes many go-to models for vocals and instruments, such as the C414 series and C391B. Monitor headphones like the K240 Studio, K701, and K712 PRO are highly regarded by pro engineers and musicians, while wireless models including the K361-BT and K371-BT are widely used in recording studios and broadcast facilities around the world.
