I didn³'t expect the quality to be this good.

I use a microphone to communicate discord/ts/ in game and also for recording in fl studio A good microphone that you can work with, I advise you to immediately buy a windscreen and a pop filter for this microphone, as well as a bracket to increase the level of convenience An XLR wire is also required. And it is better to use with a sound card, preferably a good one from 5-6k

Pros
  • Great sound Reliability Design
Cons
  • Complete set, even a small tripod is missing, or other accessories (pop filter, windscreen)

Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

This is a great choice for a home recording studio. For recording vocals and picking up the sound of a combo, for example, this is an ideal option for a home or "garage", you will not find better. I recommend buying a normal crane stand for this micro. The microm comes with its branded holder, so there will be no problems with installation on the crane. Separately, I’ll say for all sorts of mother’s repiers - you don’t need this microphone. Having bought it, you will not become like this…

Pros
  • Inexpensive condenser microphone of almost studio quality. Very inexpensive I would say. It has all the necessary qualities for working both with vocals and for picking up sound from anything. Built-in attenuator and low pass filter. This is really a condenser microphone, not an electret like 100% Chinese "condenser" podcast microphones. It needs 48V phantom power. A full-fledged XLR connector is an undoubted advantage for a microphone in this niche. Well, in general, a pleasant appearance, high-quality assembly and a box that can be useful for storing this mic until you buy a special case.
Cons
  • I would not call it a disadvantage, rather a nuance. 1) The microphone is heavy. Those. if you are the proud owner of a cheap Chinese pantograph - keep in mind that it may very well happen that he will not be able to maintain this mic in the right position. 2) He is quite fat. Sounds silly, but only until you decide to shove this mic into a spider-type holder. Chinese holders immediately pass by, it will not fit into them (this is for those who bought a Chinese set of pantograph - holder - microphone - copy of VM-800)

A wonderful product, it's nice to use.

In my review below I will describe my opinion about the product AKG P120 High Performance Recording Microphone. The case is metal, the holder on the stand or the pantograph is also metal (unlike Chinese bullshit). According to the characteristics, of course, very good. The microphone is universal: suitable for recording vocals, streaming and recording instruments. I will add a review after the test. : writes well

Pros
  • I am very familiar with AKG, and even though the microphone is a budget segment, I had no doubts about its quality, especially since I watched a lot of reviews and tests.
Cons
  • Not

Valuable purchase, nothing but pluses!

Got pros: I have been using the microphone for more than a year and have never let me down and have not seen jambs behind it. Some cons: Too bad it doesn' the room must be very well soundproofed by any means.

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good one.

Pros: A very good microphone if you are on a budget and want something better than the bm800 with an amplifier. Different cons: I don’t really understand how the second switch on the microphone generally affects. But this is not even a minus in general.

The best thing Ive ever used, a great item for everyone!

I can’t say anything extra, except that ~6k for a microphone is a lot, but if you don’t mind the money, then for some simple things and a feeling of superiority over people with a microphone for 100, this is a good choice Pros: It’s hard to say something, since I don’t deal with sound myself, I took it on the recommendation of a friend who understands, but from my amateurish position I can highlight the following positive points: + The sound is noticeably better and cleaner than from my…

Excellent quality, absolutely not expected for such a price.

I did not regret the purchase, and what to regret for a good price. Of course it's an electret microphone. But it's okay, I'm happy with everything. Its pros: Sound - for 7k the sound is excellent, I still took a microphone for versatility. The microphone already has foam, so no pop filter is needed. Build quality - at least not backlash. Got cons: It's heavy, but that's just a nuance. Although I understand that this is because of the iron casing. Package contents - due to a rather poor kit…

No complaints, I recommend to buy.

Today my review will be about the product AKG P120 High Performance Recording Microphone. In general, I am satisfied with the microphone, especially since I bought it from my hands for 3 thousand, and not for 10, as in the store. I indicated the shortcomings in the corresponding column, but in general the sound is pleasant and of high quality. If it cost less, I think it would become a "folk" device for home recording.

Pros
  • - decent sound - built-in attenuator and low-pass filter in the microphone itself
Cons
  • - too many high frequencies, the sounds "s", "sh" get into the recording a lot even when using a pop filter, you have to use an equalizer or a diazer.

Cool product, happy with the purchase, maybe I'll buy it again.

Hello everyone, today I want to tell you about AKG P120 High Performance Recording Microphone. In addition to the smell and the lack of a spider, I do not see any cons. The directivity of the sound field is relatively narrow, which is good, it catches less extraneous sounds. The rating was reduced only because of the smell. I will add. After about 2 years, the smell has finally faded)

Pros
  • Quality sound, there are switches for two functions. Black color looks nice.
Cons
  • For me, only one of the main drawbacks is the smell of rubber, or some parts from the microphone, an incomprehensible smell, maybe it smells from the pop filter in the microphone. When you eat close, you can feel the smell. Hope it fades over time. No spider included. The box says made in China.

A nice option for the money, one of the best deals.

I bought a video in m for 5400, a 2-year warranty, by sound: Write this microphone, in my opinion, it’s normal, given its price guys ! it seems to me that it writes very evenly, for voice acting and announcers it will be a significant plus, it writes clearly without a special voice color, I definitely advise you to take it for a budget studio or a home studio, only Chinese is cheaper China, but here it’s still akg and a 2-year warranty, I compared it with audio technica at 2022, at 2050, at…

Pros
  • Very low price for a studio microphone, the recording quality for this price is good, the mount is included, good assembly, 2 year warranty Carl
Cons
  • There is not even a cheap case included, many people want the cord to be included, but for this price it's normal, even if they put the cord, the price would be different and the quality of the cord, I think, would not be ice

The purchase brought only positive emotions.

This is a microphone for a recording studio. He hears a lot of computer noise, or someone is making noise in the kitchen. A lot of extraneous shhh turns out. Noise gate does not solve this problem, the sound becomes unnatural. But this cannot be attributed to the disadvantages of the micron, since this is a feature of condenser microphones. They are not intended for the home studio. However, I like to use it at home. I sing and the music is loud and overwhelms the background noise. And if you…

Pros
  • Through it and headphones, the voice sounds even more pleasant than live. The sound is very juicy, pleasant. I can sing, I can whisper, I can scratch my hand - everything is heard very clearly and brightly. Condenser microphones should be especially protected from shock, cold . But I dropped it very hard, and more than once. He also had to freeze. And he, like a Kalashnikov, does not break from anything.
Cons
  • There are no disadvantages.
