Sonic Character

Perfect for the stage or the studio, the C214's pride themselves on capturing the same sonic characteristics of the iconic AKG C414's - at a much affordable price point.

With a switchable attenuator switch, you can get great close-up recordings of high-volume sources, with the C214 withstanding up to 156dB SPL. A switchable Bass-cut filter helps to reduce any unwanted low end or remove a troublesome hum or rumble from the room.

Good Things Come In Pairs

Incredibly versatile even on its own, the C214 is transformed when paired up. Delivering its intense clarity and accuracy across a stereo field, you feel like you're actually in the room when listening back.

Quality Construction

Built to AKG's consistently high standards, the C214 Stereo pair includes an integrated suspension system which assists in reducing mechanical noise and minimises vibrational interference, particularly during an energetic live scenario.

Housed inside a robust, all-metal, die-cast body, the C214 is incredibly durable - able to withstand the rigorous demands of both a live stage and a busy studio - complete with a shock-resistant and scratch-resistant finish to boot.

With a pair of custom-fitting shock mounts included, you'll truly feel the quality of the C214's before you've even heard them. Packed away conveniently and easily inside the padded metal case, you have a safe and secure storage solution included, ready to hit the road when you are.
