AKG Blue Line Series
Condenser Microphones
Description
The AKG Blue Line Series consists of a family of directional
prepolarized condenser capsules and microphone configurations
that are all compatible with a single powering/output assembly.
Because of the general popularity of the cardioid pattern, the
CK 91 cardioid capsule and SE 300 B powering/output assembly
are sold as a single unit, the AKG Model C 391 B microphone.
The remaining Blue Line capsules offer the following patterns:
CK 92 (omnidirectional), CK 93 (hypercardioid), CK 94
(bidirectional), and CK 98 (shotgun capsule, high directivity).
Three additional configurations are available: CK 97-O
(omnidirectional lavalier), CK 97-C (cardioid lavalier), CK 97-CVR
(cardioid gooseneck with bass roll-off). The Blue Line Series is
suitable for studio, live sound, and a variety of speech
reinforcement applications, where the facility for switching
capsules is a major advantage. The positive Modulock
bayonet design allows these changes to be made quickly. The
Blue Line microphones exhibit accurate axial response and
uniform pattern control. Self noise and maximum operating
levels are exemplary, creating a very wide usable dynamic range
for the most demanding operations. The SE 300 B powering/
output assembly provides for 10 dB of attenuation for operation
at high sound pressure levels, as well as a 12 dB/octave low cut
below 75 Hz for close usage. A complete line of optional
accessories is available including an extension cable for
operating the microphone capsule up to 10 ft. (3 meters) from
the powering/output module.
