AKG C544L

C544 L – High-Performance Head-Worn Condenser Microphone

The C544 L is a high-performance, head-worn miniature condenser microphone, designed for gymnastics instruction, presentations, and other hands-free speech applications. Its comfortable and secure headband ensures stability, even during intense movement.

The short microphone arm positions the mic perfectly near the mouth, reducing pop and breath noise, while an integrated shock mount minimizes body noise. A special moisture shield prevents sweat or makeup from blocking the microphone, making it ideal for high-energy performances.

The C544 L comes with a three-pin mini XLR connector, fully compatible with all AKG WMS Series body-pack transmitters. A windscreen is also included for additional protection.

With its rugged design, easy usability, and exceptional price-performance ratio, the C544 L is the perfect hands-free microphone for sports instructors, stage performers, and presenters. Its cheek pads keep it securely in place even during sudden head movements, while a frequency boost at 10 kHz and roll-off below 800 Hz enhance speech clarity, even in noisy environments.

The innovative moisture shield prevents sweat penetration into the transducer, ensuring long-lasting durability. Additionally, a drop ring at the lower end of the gooseneck redirects sweat away from the capsule, with four extra drop rings included in the package.
