AKG P170 4-stars Reviews
Love it
This was a rush-replacement fo one of my C390B Mics that broke. Primary use is on HiHat and it's been on many shows with me on tour. Happy I got it.
For hats
That’s why I got it. Affordable quick easy decent hat mic. I’m going to also use it as an experiment mic on a second acoustic position.
You get what you pay for.
This mic is handy to have, works in live situation for loud sources like overheads, but I would never use it in studio. It has a lot of noise.
Sounds good, but be careful of buzz
The hi-lo gain switch on the side of the mic allows a path for buzz to get past the shielding. Take care if the mic's hand held.
