C 477 WR





  • Resistant to moisture, perspiration, and salts
  • Ruler-flat frequency response
  • Dual-diaphragm transducer for suppression of cable noise
  • Compatible to all popular wireless transmitters
  • The new AKG C 477 WR has been designed for performers working hard in the heat of the spotlights. Owing to its small size it is the perfect choice for "hidden" use on stage or o n camera, where absolute mobility and excellent audio are required. Extremely small omnidirectional lavalier microphone. The patented dual-diaphragm capsule has been designed specifically to protect the transducer from moisture and perspiration. The capsule uses two vertical diaphragms mounted back to back and connected out of phase to cancel out mechanical and cable noise, etc. The C 477 WR uses a sturdy metal headband that ensures an exceptionally stable fit and provides increased output level as it allows the microphone to be placed very close to the user's mouth. Finally, you'll love the sound of this microphone and its compatibility with all popular wireless transmitters.

    Available versions:
    C 477 WR L (3-pin mini XLR, for use with AKG WMS bodypack transmitters)
    C 477 WR L/P (flesh tone)

    The microphone shall be an extremely light head-worn design. The microphone shall use a dual-diaphragm transducer with a frequency-independent omnidirectional polar pattern. The transducer element shall be protected from penetrating water. An additional moisture shield shall protect the transducer element from perspiration and makeup flowing along the microphone arm. The microphone shall be available in matte skincolor or black finishes and meet the following performance criteria: frequency response: 20 to 20,000 Hz, sensitivity: 8 mV/Pa, electrical impedance: <3k5 ohms, power requirement: 1.5 to 12 VDC. The microphone shall be fitted with a 1.5 m (5 ft.) cable and its net (exclusive of the cable)/shipping weight shall be 15/325 grams (0.5/11.5 oz.).
