At €780, this is far above the recent used market for this model: with a €96 median and a €174 75th percentile, the asking price is clearly ambitious rather than fair. For a buyer, that means this needs to come with something exceptional to justify the gap — otherwise it is priced well into premium territory for a used piece.
The upside is that this is a genuinely respected large-diaphragm studio microphone, known for detail, low self-noise, and a flexible voicing that suits vocals, acoustic instruments, and room capture. If it is truly excellent condition and includes the full original kit, that helps, but the price still asks a lot; unless provenance or accessories are unusually strong, most buyers should wait for a more sensibly priced example.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
AKG traces its roots to post-war Vienna, Austria, where physicist Dr. Rudolf Görike and engineer Ernst Pless founded Akustische und Kino-Geräte Gesellschaft m.b.H. in 1947. Emerging from the ruins of World War II, the duo initially supplied cinemas with loudspeakers, film projectors, and light meters, handcrafting products in a modest basement with just five employees. Rapid expansion followed, as AKG ventured into car horns, intercoms, and carbon microphone capsules, quickly gaining traction with radio stations, theaters, and jazz clubs across Europe.
The brand's product focus sharpened on professional audio excellence, pioneering headphones in 1949 and achieving global acclaim with the D12 microphone in 1953, which set standards for voice transmission. AKG became renowned for high-fidelity microphones, including iconic models like the C12 tube mic, alongside headphones, wireless systems, and phonograph cartridges. While early diversification included cinema gear, the company honed in on studio-grade transducers and monitoring tools, later incorporating digital wireless tech.
Today, under Harman International (a Samsung subsidiary since 2017), AKG holds a commanding position as a pro-audio powerhouse, favored by engineers, performers, and broadcasters for its precision and reliability. It bridges mid-tier accessibility with high-end heritage, appealing to discerning hi-fi buyers seeking reference-quality headphones and mics that deliver uncolored, transparent sound— a legacy of Austrian engineering that remains a studio staple worldwide.
