AKG D40 Cardioid Instrument Microphone

Dynamic Cardioid Instrument Microphone for Percussion, Guitars and Wind Instruments

SOUND IN MOTION for drums, percussion, wind instruments and guitar amps on stage
The D40 professional instrumental microphone with its solid all-metal body will stand up to the hardships of night-after-night onstage use "with a smile." Its patented Varimotion diaphragm uses a unique laminated material to damp high resonance peaks, leading to a quantum leap in audio performance. The transducer is protected by a sturdy wire-mesh cap and can take extremely high sound pressure levels with ease.

An integrated stand adapter in combination with the included H440 mounting bracket makes the D40 a highly versatile tool for use on drums, percussion, wind instruments and guitar amps.
