11.30AKG Perception 100 - 141

Today, have a listen to the AKG Perception 100 as we mount it on the boom. The Perception 100 is a relatively inexpensive ($99.95 street price) large diaphram condenser microphone.
The side-firing 100 has a nicely rounded sound. Being an LDC, it has plenty of output but wasn’t overly sensitive or boomy. Inside the foam padded box is a standard thread mount and manual. I didn’t notice a pronounced proximity effect and the cardiod pickup did its job well, canceling out even strong input directly off the back.
These mics allow you to get a pro sound at a consumer price.
BSW price: $99.95
Best,
