About this product

Product Information

The C214 professional large-diaphragm condenser microphone offers a supreme one-inch capsule on an integrated suspension to reduce mechanical noise. Recording of loud sources of up to 156dB SPL is not a problem thanks to the switchable 20dB attenuation pad. A bass-cut filter allows close-up recording with almost no proximity effect. The C214 combines one capsule of the legendary C414 dual-capsule system with the AKG Back-Plate Technology, resulting in an outstanding performance.

If 1,000% were a real rating that’s what I would give this seller! I had the 5150 OD pedal before and sold it so finding it again for what I sold mine for was a home run on first search…Free Shipping was the deal maker for me. Communication was quick and helpful. Ordered on the 1st, just opened the box today to find that this looks factory sealed. Amazing Seller! Awesome Product, Awesome Price! 5 Stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was listed as "open box", so I called the shop to ask for more details. Someone answered the phone right away, which was a great sign, and they told me it was a new guitar that had been returned. When I got the delivery, the outer shipping box was a little beat up, but everything else was basically brand new, tags on, plastic wrap still on the fretboard. I barely had to tune it and it was ready to play. I am very happy with this purchase and the seller.

This seller (proaudiostar) was fantastic across the board! The item was listed as "open box" so the price was a great deal, but I can't for the life of me tell where the box was opened. All of parts were factory sealed in plastic and zip-tied together on cardboard panels, just like brand new. The icing on the cake was that shipping was free and very fast. Based on my experience I just ordered another "open box" item from this seller with no hesitation whatsoever.

    IT'S JUST BRILLIANT

    Let's keep this short. I needed a new XLR Microphone for voice-acting. Pro Voice Actor Crispin Freeman recommended this one... So I bought it. With the AKG c214 w/ Stand & Pop Filter I : -Completed my Animation Demo Reel. -Have been cast in several on line voice acting projects. -Completed a documentary for school. (All with clear sounding quality.) This microphone is just 'da bomb; (Lots of other people used it when they auditioned for my friend's project.) Philip A. Jones. Thank You soooo much.

    Great value

    Being the owner of a Neumann U-67, I am somewhat spoiled. I needed a quick replacement while the 67 went in for service and the price was right on the 214. As session singers on many albums, my partner and I always asked for 414’s on the dates because of the sparkle it gave our stacked harmonies. The 214 sounds a bit “scooped” to my ears and the frequency response chart does show some peakiness at around 12 Kh. Still a very good mic for the price.

  • Good~!

    AKG’s C214 is a large diaphragm condenser microphone that is aimed at the home studio musician. It uses the same capsule as AKG’s C414B microphone – which is often considered a “must-have” mic in top studios – however the cost has been reduced by limiting the microphone to one polar pattern. The C 214 delivers a highly detailed, up-front sound and its cardioid polar pattern makes it a perfect choice for solo vocal and instrumental recordings. The C214 has very low noise and accurately picks up subtle nuances and transients in vocal recordings. It also produces great results on acoustic guitar, producing a bright and articulate sound. It has a low-cut switch that’s effective at removing any excessive bass frequencies. The microphone features a pad switch for recording louder sources and it ...

  • Classic AKG sound and quality

    AKG has a specific sound, lotta low end with a sizzle on top. This is the classic AKG 414 sound, but it's thicker and gooier than a 414, so it's not as defined. Probably to better match with cheapo mic preamps. Although the original 414 was designed in the tape days, the brightness can still come in handy. Overall I would say this mic is a good and totally suitable choice for anything you will use a cardioid LDC. Like the 414, it just works well on many sources. You just have to tweak your gear more with the less expensive gear, dial things in more, as opposed to the more top of the line stuff where it can be plug and play and good results in more situations with less fine tuning.

  • Excellent sound. Worth twice as much.

    This mic compares very well with famous mics that cost 2 to 3 times as much (you know who you are). It has a very wide, very smooth frequency response. The highs can be sibilant, but not harsh, they just need to be controlled. It has great "air" or breath when recording vocals. Recordings sit very well in mixes. Solid construction, although the shock mount has a funky way of attaching to the mic, which seems a bit precarious.
