  • Cardioid polar pattern for multiplicity of vocal and instrument applications
The earlier model C 3000 has had a large fan club in the project studio and home recording worlds for years. For the new C 3000 B, AKG designed a special 1-inch large-diaphragm transducer that closely approximates the vibration performance of top-class studio microphones, but can be made at much lower cost. Due to its surface area and special capsule tuning, the C 3000 B large-diaphragm transducer produces an exceptionally pleasing, smooth sound. Unlike in the C 3000, the switchable 10-dB preattenuation pad immediately follows the transducer in the signal path, thus increasing the C 3000 B\'s SPL capability by a true 10 dB. Loud sound sources are therefore no problem. An acoustically optimized cardioid polar pattern makes the C 3000 B an excellent choice for both recording and live sound applications where high gain before feedback is paramount.

K2 - ?It cant be done?? Precision Variable Pattern Dual 1? Condenser Valve Microphone.
 
The R?DE K2 is the result of designing and building 1000?s of valve microphones. The
K2?s HF-1 capsule is the pinnacle of transducer technology. The sound quality combines
modern high-end specifications with the character and subtleties of the legendary 50?s mics.
Infinitely variable control of the K2?s polar patterns provides the freedom and flexibility to
excel in any recording situation. The K2 is another example of R?DE?s commitment to
building quality studio microphones to meet the exacting standards demanded by today?s
professionals.At the 2004 Frankfurt Music Messa, 56 of the most prestgious music industry
magazines voted the K2 the ?Best Studio Microphone of 2004?.

The AVANTONE CK-6 is truly a gorgeous looking and sounding microphone. The design, character and performance can be compared directly to fine studio-standard FET mics…but at a fraction of their cost!

The rugged CK-6 microphone body and capsule assembly are precision machined of Brass. Aesthetically the compact body features an elegant Metallic Cabernet Wine-Red finish, accented with polished nickel trim and capsule assembly. Manufactured using the finest materials yielding a very solid feel, superb structural integrity and rugged reliability.

This Transformerless CLASS A FET Microphone w/ 32mm gold sputtered thin Mylar capsule is designed with circuitry that will yield pleasing professional results comparable to much more expensive designs. It also features -10 dB pad  &  80 Hz LF roll off switches for varied recording situations.
 
The included Custom Retro Shockmount is superb in allowing a precise positioning of the mic while inhibiting the transfer of unwanted vibrations up into the mic. This isolation allows for superior professional results.
 
Applications

Studio vocals, acoustic guitar, mandolin, drum overheads, piano, etc…
