Thanks to its switchable 20dB attenuation pad and low-cut filter, the C214 can be used in sound fields as high as 156dB SPL — you can use it onstage for close miking loud applications such as drum overheads, guitar amps, or high-output brass.

The C214 features an integrated capsule suspension that reduces mechanical noise and resonances for even greater sonic accuracy. Plus, the double mesh, all-metal grille protects the capsule and ensures high RF immunity without affecting the mic's acoustical performance. This is one roadworthy mic, too — the C214 features a modern scratch-resistant finish, dent-resistant metal grille, and gold-plated XLR output.
