Vintage 1960s AKG D224E Dynamic Microphone

The AKG D224E is a rare vintage dual-element dynamic microphone known for its exceptional clarity and versatility. Featuring both a small and large diaphragm dynamic element, it delivers a broad frequency response from approximately 20Hz to 20kHz with balanced sound reproduction. This cardioid microphone was a favorite for studio and broadcast applications, offering excellent off-axis rejection and low handling noise. Designed with an all-metal body, it provides durability with a sleek, classic aesthetic. This unit is in fair condition, showing signs of wear consistent with age, such as cosmetic blemishes and possible minor functional imperfections. Despite its condition, it remains a valuable piece for collectors, vintage audio enthusiasts, or those looking to restore a legendary microphone. Operates with an XLR connection and does not require phantom power. Whether for recording instruments, vocals, or spoken word, the AKG D224E remains a testament to AKG’s superior engineering.
