AKG D 3700 Specifications

D 3700/D 3700 S
Description
The AKG Model D 3700 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 capsule is shock
mounted with an easily removable wire mesh grille. The
smooth triangular shape of the microphone is easier to hold
than normal circular cross-section designs and is stable
when the microphone is placed on a surface. The light-
weight body is die cast zinc alloy and has a dark matte finish
for minimum reflection and glare. The D 3700 S shall have a
recessed, noiseless on-off switch.
