AKG Acoustics, U.S.
High-performance cardioid instrument microphone with Laminate Varimotion diaphragm
The AKG D 40 is a high-performance cardioid instrument microphone. The D 40 uses AKG's patented Laminate Varimotion diaphragm that dampens spurious resonances and delivers a smooth, yet highly-detailed sound that remains remarkably even regardless of sound pressure level. The D 40 delivers impressive sound quality and very high gain-before-feedback
. The D 40's cardioid pickup pattern is very smooth and well-controlled. The D 40 is shipped with an AKG H440 clip that allows the D 40 to be securely attached to the rim of snare drums or toms without requiring a mic stand. The D 40's chassis is made of tough die-cast alloy and is equipped with a thick, dent-resistant spring steel grille and a gold-plated XLR-type connector for loss-free signal transfer. The European-built D 40 is backed by a two-year parts and labor warranty from AKG.
