zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. AKG C5 Condenser Mic Customer Review

Sound: This Mic replaced my Beta 58, with surprisingly better presence, and clarity. Since it's a condenser, it really has a sweet sonic characteristic, that suits my voice perfectly. Best Stage mic I've ever owned, I love it!

Style of Music: Modern country, and classic rock
