Brief Description

AKG condenser microphone, the C451 EB + CK1. The new C451 65th
Anniversary Edition, however, uses a fixed capsule to eliminate the
mechanical problems of the original modular design. The microphone
is the perfect choice for any application where sounds, particularly
their transient content, need to be captured with maximum accuracy.
Owing to its extremely light diaphragm, the microphone is highly
insensitive to handling noise. An all-metal body provides efficient
protection from RF interference and the microphone is rugged enough
to give excellent results even under very harsh conditions.
A switchable 10-dB/20-dB preattenuation pad increases the
microphone's SPL capability when close-miking high-energy sound
sources or driv ing preamps or mixers with limited headroom.
A switchable highpass filter at 75 Hz or 150 Hz helps minimize low-
end distortion that may be caused, e.g., by rumble or wind noise. The
slope of the filter is approx. 12 dB/octave and its corner frequency (3
dB down point) is selectable at 75 Hz or 150 Hz.
