the AKG D7 S is a reference handheld dynamic vocal microphone designed to capture vocals and instruments with condenser-like sound for artists and audio engineers in clubs, concert venues, and houses of worship. The laminated dual-layer Varimotion diaphragm exhibits a supercardioid polar pattern for excellent off-axis rejection of audio across the frequency spectrum. This allows high gain before feedback and reduced stage bleed through the mic. Handling noise is minimized by the mechano-pneumatic capsule suspension and an integrated 80 Hz high-pass filter.
