Looking for an Affordable, Quality Mic for the Studio?

It isn't often that a microphone like the AKG C 2000 B comes around. Designed to handle a huge range of recording tasks, the C 2000 B features an almost ruler-flat response for a crystal-clear, "up-front" sound. The small diaphragm and bass rolloff make it ideal for close up miking. Top it all off with a rugged "built-to-last" design, and the C 2000 B is the perfect recording microphone for your project studio!

AKG C 2000 B Condenser Microphone at a Glance:
  • Cardioid pattern with precision-built capsule
  • Switchable pad for added SPL capacity
  • Bass cut filter controls rumble and proximity effect
  • Die-cast body guards against interference
  • Internal shockmount reduces handling noise
  • Includes H85 shockmount
Cardioid pattern with precision-built capsule

The C 2000 B transducer capsule has been acoustically designed with a cardioid polar pattern to make the microphone suitable for use both in the recording studio and on stage. The diaphragm is made of a plastic foil that is gold-sputtered on one side to prevent local shorts to the back electrode even at extremely high sound pressure levels.

Switchable pad for added SPL capacity

A switchable preattenuation pad allows you to increase the maximum SPL capability of your C 2000 B by 10 dB for distortion-free close-in recordings. Many mixing console input stages use small transformers that are susceptible to overload, particularly at low frequencies. The C 2000 B's pad prevents such overload.
