This genuine 1-inch dual-diaphragm condenser transducer with selectable cardioid, omnidirectional, and hypercardioid polar patterns will enchant you with its unique state-of-the-art sound.

Designed for miking up vocals, brass, acoustic and electric guitar, and kick drum, the AKG C4000B can handle every recording situation. Exceptionally high headroom and extremely low self noise put the AKG C4000B among the condenser microphones with the widest dynamic range available today and it will give equally excellent results in the studio and on stage.

A switchable 10-dB preattenuation pad allows the AKG C4000B to be used for close-in miking of instruments producing extremely high sound pressure levels such as guitar amps etc. A switchable bass cut filter eliminates low-frequency noise.

Review AKG C4000B

Murray Oates

Rating: 8/10

The AKG C4000B has a lovely, distortion-free bright, clean, clear and loud sound. Comes with shock mount and case. It's versitile becuse it has Omidirectional as well as Cardioid and Hypercardioid switches - and can be powered from 9 - 52 volts. It sounds life like.

I owned a Behringer B2 Pro - which I think is similar but it has a slight metalic sound in comparison.
