"A sound choice for a dependable and affordable all-rounder small-diaphragm condenser".
The new AKG C1000 S Mk IV is also reviewed in Future Music magazine this month where it receives an 8 out of 10 rating.
"AKG's C1000 S, now in a new Mk IV version, has over the years been a popular choice for anyone looking for a multi-purpose small-diaphragm condenser that can take on a number of tasks both in the studio, onstage and out in the field".
"We reckon this is one pretty versatile mic and reasonably-priced, so who is the C10000 S for? Well, for general studio use it's a great asset to have in the mic cupboard; two would be even better and provide an affordable source of decent stereo micing. It's also a solid choice if you make field recordings; the battery power being the essential feature, but ruggedness also being paramount. Plus the C1000 S's gold capsule and XLR plugs make it humidity-proof for all environments".
The full review can be found in latest issue of Future Music magazine (Autumn, Issue 271) on sale now. The AKG C1000 S Mk IV is also available now priced at £179 RRP inc VAT.
