The AKG C414 Matched Pair is a set of two high-quality, large-diaphragm condenser microphones that have been precisely matched (within 1 dB sensitivity) by a computer-aided method for optimal stereo recording. These legendary microphones are industry staples known for their exceptional versatility, pristine sound quality, and robust feature set. 
Key Features
  • Nine Selectable Polar Patterns: Users can switch between omnidirectional, wide cardioid, cardioid, hypercardioid, figure-8, and four intermediate settings, making them suitable for virtually any recording application, from solo instruments and vocals to full orchestras or drum overheads.
  • High-Quality Sound: The C414 XLS version offers neutral, highly linear sound reproduction, while the C414 XLII version provides a slight presence boost and enhanced spatial detail reminiscent of the classic AKG C12 microphone, ideal for making lead vocals and solo instruments stand out in a mix.
  • Versatile Controls: Both versions feature three switchable attenuation pads (-6, -12, -18 dB) for handling high sound pressure levels (up to 158 dB SPL) and three switchable bass-cut filters to reduce unwanted rumble, vibration, or proximity effect.
  • Professional Features: They include useful functionalities like a peak hold LED to indicate the shortest overload peaks and a “lock mode” to disable controls for live sound or permanent installations.
  • Comprehensive Kit: The matched pair set comes with essential accessories for stereo miking, including a metal carrying case, two spider-type shock mounts, two windscreens, and a stereo bar

A legend since 1971

The C414 XLS multipattern condenser microphone offers a choice of nine polar patterns for the perfect sonic capture for every application. A peak hold LED displays even the shortest overload peaks. For live sound applications and permanent installations, all controls can easily be disabled for trouble-free use. The C414 XLS maintains the sonic character of the legendary C414 B-ULS, the most popular AKG C414 version since 1971. Engineered for highest linearity and neutral sound, it has been the most versatile large-diaphragm microphone for decades.
