Its edge-terminated design is directly inspired by the celebrated capsule technology of the historic C12 and C414 lineage, offering a soaringly sweet treble, a beautifully balanced, uncoloured midrange and a firm, textured low-end. The transformerless FET circuit captures rapid transients with outstanding clarity and avoids harsh metallic sibilance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"1103\" height=\"621\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZoIzFGWc-NE\" title=\"AKG C114 Condenser Microphone | Large Diaphragm Multi-Pattern | Studio-Grade Clarity for Creators\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThree Selectable Polar Patterns for Pure Versatility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe C114 features a user-friendly sliding pattern switch for instant selection between cardioid, omnidirectional and figure-of-eight polar patterns. Cardioid mode isolates vocals with natural off-axis rejection; omnidirectional captures lifelike room ambiance; figure-of-eight records two facing sources or side signals for stereo configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHigh Headroom and Eco-Conscious Durability\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe C114 is engineered to handle delicate whispers and explosive performances with equal, distortion-free fidelity. Boasting a massive maximum sound pressure level of 145 dB SPL, it close-mics loud brass instruments, snare drums and high-gain guitar amplifiers without breaking a sweat. Despite its incredible performance, it boasts a remarkably low self-noise floor of 12 dB(A). Additionally, the robust rectangular body is crafted from 100% post-industrial recycled metals and alloys, while the fully recyclable packaging is designed for minimal environmental impact—proof that professional performance can go hand-in-hand with environmental responsibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMain features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProfessional large-diaphragm multi-pattern condenser microphone for studio, broadcast and streaming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-quality 26 mm gold-sputtered dual-diaphragm true condenser capsule\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEdge-terminated capsule design directly inspired by the legendary C12 and C414 lineage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCardioid, omnidirectional and figure-of-eight selectable polar patterns for versatile acoustic capture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmooth high-frequency reproduction paired with an uncoloured, natural midrange\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpansive frequency range from 20 Hz to 20 kHz to capture every subtle nuance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutstanding maximum SPL handling of 145 dB to easily manage high-gain amplifiers, drums and brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtremely low self-noise of only 12 dB(A) ensures quiet, pristine recordings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptimised transformerless FET circuitry for clean signal paths and exceptionally fast transient response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSustainable body crafted entirely from 100% post-industrial recycled metals and alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProfessional 3-pin XLR male connector requiring standard 48V phantom power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePremium H84 all-metal shockmount included to securely isolate the microphone from structure-borne rumble\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Includes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e1 x C114 Multi-pattern Condenser Microphone\u003cbr\u003e1 x H84 Shock mount\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTech Specs:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapsule Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e 26 mm dual-diaphragm true condenser pressure-gradient\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapsule Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e Edge-terminated, gold-sputtered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePolar Patterns:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cardioid, Omnidirectional, Figure-of-Eight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency Response:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20 Hz – 20 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSensitivity (Cardioid):\u003c\/strong\u003e 13.5 mV\/Pa (-37.4 dBV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax SPL (for 0.5% THD):\u003c\/strong\u003e 145 dB SPL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSelf-Noise Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 dB(A) SPL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSignal-to-Noise Ratio:\u003c\/strong\u003e 82 dB (referenced to 1 Pa)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElectrical Impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 200 ohms or less\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Load Impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1000 ohms or greater\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePhantom Powering:\u003c\/strong\u003e 48 V ±4 V (to IEC 61938)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCurrent Consumption:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 mA or less\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnector Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3-pin XLR (pin 2 hot)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% recycled post-industrial metals and alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (L x W x H):\u003c\/strong\u003e 158 mm x 47 mm x 35 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNet Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 415 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOperating Temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e -5°C to 50°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiscover AKG C114 Multi-Pattern Condenser Microphone:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.akg.com\/AKG-C114-LS.html\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Discover AKG Professional Audio Solutions\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003ehttps:\/\/www.akg.com\/AKG-C114-LS.html\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"AKG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51421672243236,"sku":"ADSRS: AKGP-C114","price":5495.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/8294\/files\/ADSRS_AKGP-C114img00.png?v=1788892556","url":"https:\/\/www.audiosaurus.co.za\/products\/akg-c114-large-diaphragm-multi-pattern-condenser-microphone","provider":"Audiosaurus ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
