Selling the crown jewels… 2x AKG c 414 comb (pre EB series), one with brass ring capsule, one with nylon ring. Low serials (015 [!!] and 296). with original plots, connectors and cases. (although cases are not great – aged gaffer tape holding lid on – but still original)
Gutted to be selling them but would rather see them being used to their full potential somewhere. I’m not recording anywhere near as much as used to, and can’t justify keeping them. Have only ever lived in 2 smoke free studios in their lifetime. These were altered to XLR fittings for greater flexibility many moons ago, but the original connectors will be supplied with the auction. The unit without the brass ring capsule had been sent back to AKG in Austria an awful long time ago to repair a transformer issue, and was returned to us ‘repaired’, which is why there is a difference in capsules. This wasn’t investigated further at the time sadly. Cosmetic aging (can poss be cleaned, haven’t tried / investigated), but functionally brilliant. They do have plaques stuck to one side commemorating one of the founding board members from the studio where they lived 95% of their lives (Christchurch Recording Centre in New Zealand).
Would prefer not to sell individually.
