AKG Acoustics D660S - Manual

D 660 S
Description
The AKG Model D 660 S is a rugged dynamic
hypercardioid microphone intended for on-stage instrumental
and vocal pickup. Its hypercardioid pattern is uniform with
frequency, and response has been boosted at mid and high
frequencies for crisp instrumental pickup and improved
speech intelligibility. The microphone has a heavy duty steel
screen with an integral support frame. The inner pop filter
can be removed for cleaning or for replacement. The
microphone incorporates a Doubleflex™ mounting system
used to isolate the capsule assembly. This system places the
primary resonance of the moving system to well below the
audible range, resulting in excellent isolation of handling and
cable induced noises. The light-weight body is die cast zinc
alloy and has a dark matte finish for minimum reflection and
glare.
Features
• Response tailored for instrumental
and vocal on-stage performance
• Frequency independent
hypercardioid pattern for added
immunity to feedback
• Very low handling noise through
use of AKG’s Doubleflex™ anti-
vibration isolation system
• High sensitivity (2.0 mV/Pa)
resulting from use of high-energy
neodymium-iron-boron magnet
• Light-weight die cast metal body
with dark matte finish
• Replaceable inner pop filter
