## Description

The C555 L high-performance head-worn condenser microphone is ideal for handsfree applications, including presentations or onstage performances. The C555 L rests securely and comfortably on the head, and can be attached to the left or right side of the behind-the-neck headband as desired. A transducer shock mount reduces handling noise to a minimum. The moisture shield ensures a high degree of humidity protection for the microphone. The C555 L provides a three-pin mini XLR connector and can be used with all AKG WMS Series body-pack transmitters, B29 L battery power supply, or the MPA VL adapter for external phantom powering.

Review: Very good mic. - very good response, works great with AKG body pack and receiver into an Allen & Heath ZEDi 10fx mixer. No detectable noise. No feedback even when close to LD Maui speakers. Fairly comfortable over quite a few hours. Good value for money. Just have to remember not to take a swig of beer before moving the mic out of the way:-)
Review: Great vocal quality - The AKG C520 has a 2.5 m (approx.) cable and connects directly to the XLR input of a mixing desk, amp etc. It's great for situations where you require good separation between the vocalist and the background, such as a keyboard player etc. It has a surprisingly good vocal quality and is a very useful addition to any home studio or live performance gear.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good mic.
*by B***E on 27 June 2025*

very good response, works great with AKG body pack and receiver into an Allen & Heath ZEDi 10fx mixer. No detectable noise. No feedback even when close to LD Maui speakers.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great vocal quality
*by M***S on 8 December 2019*

### ⭐ Will NOT fit my b-flat clarinet, and despite their claims, may not fit your wind instrument.
*by L***E on 31 March 2015*

Despite stating on the AKG website that the c519 will clip softly onto the bell of "any wind instrument", this is demonstrably untrue. When I contacted AKG directly saying that the clip would not attach to my clarinet, they pointed out that their website was covered by a legal notice saying that AKG cannot in any way guarantee that statements on the AKG website are correct. When i pointed out that in the C519 manual (which i read online before purchase) it shows a diagram and explanation of how to clip the mic onto a clarinet, AKG countered that the manual gave information of how to use the C519, not what to use it with(?!)... and anyway it also doesn't mean that it can fit ALL clarinets. Apparently that includes my R13 Buffet b-flat clarinet, arguably the most popular model of clarinet in the world. It is, also, I'm pretty sure, a wind instrument.
