About the AKG Perception 820 Tube Studio Condenser Microphone

The brand-new Perception 820 Tube delivers real tube sound quality. It is not only the new flagship model of the Perception Series but also raises the bar in its class of affordable tube microphones. In contrast to many other affordable tube microphones, the Perception 820 Tube delivers real tube sound quality thanks to the dual one-inch large diaphragm capsule and the sophisticated ECC 83 dual-triode circuitry.

AKG Perception 820 Tube Studio Condenser Microphone Reviews

I'll keep this short and to the point: If you have the money buy this mic - the sound is exceptional, the build quality is excellent, the included shock mount is A-1 quality, the control box is great. The ONLY small gripe is it is so hard to open-up the mic to get at the tube - but since the included tube is of very high quality that won't be an issue for some time. I was worried about the proprietary cable: it's very long and the pins in the plug are very small. But the length doesn't affect the sound at all, even coiled, and the plug is of high quality - just don't go mashing it into the mic - make sure you have it aligned. The sound from this mic is incredible. Natural and warm, great dynamic range, smooth buttery lows and sharp bell-like highs. Be fore-warned this sucker is SENSITIVE! You will be able to hear conversations in adjoining rooms if you don't do something to isolate it.
