Pro Audio P220 High-Performance Condenser Microphone, Great for Vocals, Guitar, Brass, and General Recording. XLR Wired Mic, for Studio or Stage. Black

The AKG Pro Audio P420 is an outstanding microphone for both studio and field recording. The sound quality is clean, warm, and detailed — easily rivaling higher-end mics. The selectable polar patterns (cardioid, omnidirectional, and figure-eight) make it extremely versatile for vocals, instruments, and voiceover work. The included shock mount and carrying case are solid and professional-grade, offering excellent protection and stability. The build quality feels premium, and setup is simple. I’ve used it for both music and spoken recordings, and it delivers consistently impressive results. This mic is a real workhorse — highly recommended for anyone serious about audio production.

As a home recording artist, this mic definitely met my needs. For the longest time, I've owned the AKG Perception 120 (the old model), and I've never had a problem with this mic. The main reason to why I bought the P220 was so I can change my setup to have one mic for recording vocals (the P220) and the other mic for recording YouTube videos (Perception 120). The shock mount for the P220 is being used for the Perception 120, and it fits the mic perfectly. Both mics are basically the same size, so I figured that it would work. The build quality on the P220 is rugged and tough, and the functions are very simple. You have 2 main settings: the bass roll off, which is great if you want to record without having to deal with any unnecessary low end frequency that the mic picks up. The other setting cuts off the signal by 20db. From my experience, it's best use is if you have a noisy background, and you don't want that to bleed into the mic. It basically isolates the signal to only be heard right in front of the mic as opposed to everything in the environment. I would be lying if I said that were some things I don't like about it (because I simply LOVE AKG products) but for other people, this might be too simple of a mic compared to other more expensive mics. The sound of this mic is warmer and more direct than the AKG Perception 120, so I felt that it was better for recording vocals. However, the Perception 120 still crushes it in the studio. Some people might consider a different taste in sound compared to other mics, but for me, this mic suits my needs perfectly. The AKG Perception 120: AKG Perception P120 Professional Studio Microphone, Sliver So, here are my pros and cons: PROS: - inexpensive - simple settings - versatile (vocals, guitar, etc.) - rugged CONS (possible opinions of others): - too cheap - too simple (not enough settings) - not preferred taste of sound - too heavy

I love the quality of this mic Been using it for three years now

Straight 10s across the board. Very clear and crisp sound. Barely even picked up ambient noise. This was a very good option to do my voiceovers. Little editing needed after a smooth recording. Worth every penny. 😌

If you're on a limitted budget and looking for that sweet spot where you get the most for your money, this is it for acoustic instrument mics. I found this mic to be warm, accurate, and quiet. It also has good directional separation - so it has been useful to record different acoustic instruments (stringed) playing together simulataneously. For value, I give it 5 stars. There are better mics out there for recording acoustic instruments, but I don't know of anything better in this price range. This is not a Cadillac, but it's sort of like getting a Camry for the price of a used Chevette. If you're starting into recording acoustic instruments, you should try one of these. For instruments, I think it is much better than AKG's p220.

I am very impressed with this mic. I have been recording vocals in professional & home studios settings for about 25 years, and the quality of this mic is amazing by any standard. I have used $3k (Neumann U87) mics all the way down to $49 MXL's (SP-1, v250, 990, v67, 910, 2006, etc.), and I've also used many dynamic mics as well, shure sm58, sennheiser e838, etc . This AKG is a great large diaphragm condenser mic & I have to say I prefer this over the others I've used...this just fits my voice like a glove. I have a raspy deep voice & this mic does my vocals justice without adding any "color" to it, it just sounds like me...and that's exactly what I wanted. It is crisp & clear and warm. I will be testing it later with my tube pre amp and I'm sure it will sound even better. Right now I am running it through a tascam US 2x2 and it sounds great. So far I have tested it on rap vocals and rock vocals with excellent results. I barely have to touch the eq, if at all, this saves me time while mixing down a track. It comes with a very sturdy shock mount, heavy and solid...much better quality than the mxl shock mounts I've encountered. It also comes with a replacement band for the shock mount, an adapter for both size mic booms & an awesome case. The mic itself is pretty heavy, made of thick metal and the chrome grill with the matt black finish looks great. It has a bass rolloff switch and a -20db switch as well that can come in handy when recording electric guitar from an amp or something of that nature. Remember, you will need a 48v phantom power source for this mic. I would have expected to pay much more for this mic. Thank you AKG for another great product!

Chegou antes do tempo, comprei 02/01/26, estava previsto pra chegar dia 9, e chegou 07/01/26, muito bom produto!

Super mic,för priset, inget att säga vill man ha bra mic då är mera pengar som gäller

I'm very happy with a pair of these mics...Use them for acoustic guitar, great, and also as overheads for a drum kit...

It is a very nice large diaphragm condenser microphone with a great Frequency response. Very sensitive and catches even if you are speaking from 1 or 2 feet far. Built quality is amazing. Best for starters. Very good mic considering the price.

AAAAAAAHHHHH, qué buena calida. He utilizado este micrófono para grabar mi voz en mi proyecto de solista y el sonido es espectacular. Claro, necesitarás un anti pop y ojo: necesitarás también una base que lo soporte. Pesa un poquillo (bastantillo), diría yo que unos 700 gramos, así que consideren tener una base que sea de buena calidad para aguantarlo, porque no quisiera que la base no aguante y se les caiga y lloren.
