Redefining Pro Audio for Todays Content Creators
The AKG C104 is a large diaphragm FET condenser mic with a cardioid polar pattern. Drawing from AKG's decades of microphone engineering and design experience, the C104 boasts great clarity and ultra low noise while being able to withstand an impressive maximum SPL of 143dB with no distortion, making it a versatile microphone for producers, musicians, podcasters, and streamers.
The AKG C Series is proving to be popular in the pro audio world already, winning Mix Magazine's Best of Show Award at NAMM 2026!
22mm Nickel Sputtered Diaphragm
The C104's diaphragm uses a specialised nickel sputtering process that prevents the capsule from shorting on the back electrode even when you're pushing it to its extremes with high sound pressure levels.
Ultra Wide Dynamic Range
With a maximum SPL of 143dB, the C104 can handle almost anything
you throw at it without introducing audible distortion. This combined with its extremely low noise floor makes the C104 the perfect option for capturing a wide range of sources. From loud electric guitars to whisper quiet voices, you'll get exceptional audio quality in front of any audio source.
Eco Friendly Design and Accessories
The C104 has been designed with sustainability in mind. The microphone bodies are made entirely from recycled PIR metals and alloys. The accessories have been engineered to minimise environmental impact and the packaging is fully recyclable.
The AKG C104 comes complete with a mic stand mount so you're ready to record right out of the box.
