A Classic AKG Condenser Mic Reborn!!
AKG’s C 451 was one of the all-time great studio condenser microphones. Though the original C 451 mic ended production many years ago, it’s still an extremely popular staple in studios all over the world. The enduring popularity of the C 451 inspired AKG to bring this mic back in the C 451 B.
