C 5900
Tripower Condenser Microphone
Description
The AKG Model C 5900 is a rugged condenser
hypercardioid microphone intended for on-stage instrumental
and vocal pickup. Its hypercardioid pattern is uniform with
frequency, and response has been boosted slightly at mid
and high frequencies for crisp instrumental pickup and
improved speech intelligibility. Switchable 6 dB/octave bass
roll-off and 12 dB/octave bass cut provide flexibility in
dealing with proximity effect. The microphone capsule is
shock mounted with an easily removable wire mesh grille.
The smooth triangular shape of the microphone is easier to
hold than normal circular cross-section designs and is stable
when the microphone is placed on a surface. The light-
weight body is die cast zinc alloy and has a dark matte finish
for minimum reflection and glare.
