Engineered excellence for recording of lead vocals and solo instruments in studio and on stage. The AKG C214 large-diaphragm condenser microphone is perfect in any situation.

The C214 large-diaphragm condenser microphone has been designed as a cost-effective alternative to the high-end C414 family. The C214 captures sound by combining one capsule of the legendary C414 dual-capsule system and the patented AKG Back-Plate Technology, resulting in an outstanding performance close to the famous C414 XLII.

Realistic stereo recordings require microphones with outstanding performance and excellent quality. They also require performance consistency and accurate localization from the pair of microphones.
Therefore, every factory-matched pair of C214s is created from thousands of individual microphones selected by AKG's sophisticated computer-aided matching method.
The result is the highest possible correlation over the whole frequency range and virtually identical sensitivity for stunning, three-dimensional recordings.
