About AKG LC81 MD

Let the star stand out, not the microphone
The LC81 MD reference lightweight cardioid lavalier microphone makes a name for itself by not stealing the show. With a diameter of only 4.8mm and a length of 10mm, it's one of the smallest cardioid lavaliers available. And at only 2g, the LC81 MD won't weigh down lengthy performances - in fact, the stars will hardly know that it's there. But that's just its size. When it comes to sound, its sensitive cardioid polar pattern picks up a wide range of frequencies - from bass to soprano - and provides flexibility in getting the best sound from the source. Placed close to the performer, it accurately picks up low-end frequencies; place it farther away for performances in a higher range. Available in four colors, the LC81 MD is inconspicuous on every user.
