The new C555L head-worn microphone from AKG is rugged, extremely easy to use, and offers outstanding price/performance. The C555L is the ideal microphone for any handsfree application including gymnastics instruction, presentations, or onstage performance.
The C555L 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 prevents perspiration from penetrating into the transducer element, ensuring a high degree of humidity protection for the microphone.
The C555L is the only version available and can be used with the B29L battery power supply, AKG WMS40 or any WMS Series bodypack transmitters, or the MPAVL adapter for external phantom powering.
