AKG P170 Instrument Condenser Microphone
The AKG P170 is a professional small-diaphragm condenser microphone designed to deliver detailed, accurate sound reproduction for both studio recording and live performance applications. Featuring a cardioid pickup pattern and a lightweight 1/2-inch gold-sputtered diaphragm, the P170 captures instruments with excellent clarity, fast transient response, and impressive precision.
Available from Audio Shop Australia, the AKG P170 is an excellent choice for musicians, producers, content creators, and audio engineers looking for reliable instrument recording performance across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, and Australia-wide.
Detailed Sound with Fast Transient Response
Designed as an affordable alternative to the renowned AKG C451 B, the P170 excels at recording acoustic guitars, drum overheads, hi-hats, percussion, strings, pianos, amplifiers, and more. Its lightweight diaphragm provides crisp high-frequency detail while maintaining natural tonal balance across a wide frequency range.
The microphone can handle extremely high sound pressure levels up to 150dB, while the integrated switchable 20dB pad allows distortion-free recording even when capturing loud instruments and close-mic applications.
Built with a rugged all-metal body and durable grille, the AKG P170 is designed for demanding day-to-day use. Its construction also improves RF interference rejection, making it reliable for use near wireless systems and transmitter equipment in both studio and live environments.
