The AKG Model C 417-L is an extremely smooth omnidirectional microphone intended to be worn by speakers who demand highest audio quality and complete freedom of movement. It is one of the smallest lavalier microphones available today and is available in both black and beige versions for ultimate concealing. Frequency response extends from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, with a 4 dB rise at 8 kHz for enhanced intelligibility.
The C 417 can handle sound pressure levels of 126 dB with only 3% THD and operates with phantom powering over a range from 9 to 52 Vdc. The C 417/L has a 5 ft. (1.5-meter) cable terminated in a mini-XLR-F connector for use with the B 29 L battery power supply/mixer, MPAIII phantom power adapter, or with PT 40, -61, -80, -81 wireless transmitters.
