Studio quality for podcast, stream and music

The AKG C104 is a large-diaphragm cardioid condenser microphone that combines modern recording requirements with classic AKG know-how. It is aimed at musicians, podcasters, streamers and content creators who are looking for an honest, clean signal without technical drama and who value a professional appearance in front of the camera.

Clear sound that hits the spot

Inside is a 22 mm electret large diaphragm with nickel-coated foil on one side. This design ensures that everything remains controlled even at very high levels. The microphone handles sound pressure levels of up to 143 dB SPL and remains surprisingly calm. Loud guitar amps, powerful vocals or speech with lots of dynamics come across clearly, openly and without audible distortion.

From whisper to full throttle

Thanks to its low self-noise and wide dynamic range, the AKG C104 covers a wide range of applications. Quiet passages retain details, while loud signals do not come across as compressed or harsh. The cardioid polar pattern helps to keep room components and sources of interference in check, which is a real advantage in home studios, streaming setups or rooms that are not perfectly treated.

Technology that works in everyday life

The transformerless FET circuit delivers a direct, clean signal and reacts quickly to transients. The connection is made in the classic way via 3-pin XLR, assuming phantom power of 48 volts. This means that the C104 can be easily integrated into any audio interface or mixing console setup, whether in a studio or broadcast environment.

Sustainably designed, solidly built

With the C104, AKG consistently focuses on an environmentally conscious design. The housing is made from fully recycled PIR metals, and the packaging and accessories are designed to minimize environmental impact. The microphone has a high-quality feel, sits comfortably in the hand and also looks very professional.

Versatile in the studio and beyond

Whether for music production, podcasts, voice over, streaming, video blogging or classic voice recordings for broadcasting and conferences, the AKG C104 is a flexible large diaphragm microphone that can be set up quickly and delivers reliable results. A suitable stand holder is already included so that you can get started without any detours.

The AKG C104 stands for clear sound, high level stability and modern design with responsibility. A microphone for anyone who simply wants to record without having to think about technology for long and still wants to sound professional.
