Its supercardioid polar pattern ensures maximum gain before feedback (for more details, visit www.akg.com/feedbackisdead). The D 5 stands for a crisp sound that cuts through every mix. AKG made the first microphone diaphragm ever whose thickness varies across its diameter. The new Laminated Varimotion diaphragm deep-drawing process allows the diaphragm itself to be fine-tuned with no extra tuning resonators, leading to a quantum leap in audio performance.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: is there a way to plug it into a pc to record it and if there is how would u do it**
A: You will need an audio interface, or a mixer built-in USB/Audio Interface. I would recommend you a Behringer Xenyx Q502USB, this mixer can do the job. And how to record audio? with a simple audio recording program like Audacity.

**Q: Does this require phantom power ? or can this be operated under normal circumstances ? can this replace a shure sm58 directly ?**
A: Because this is a dynamic microphone it does not require phantom power. It could be used as a direct replacement for a sm58

**Q: What kind of chord is needed for this mic to connect to a speaker?**
A: It can't be directly connected to a speaker, it needs to go through a pa system, in which case you would need an XLR (3-prong) chord. If you're talking about one of those block rocker speakers, like the ones they sell at costco, then you would need the female xlr/ to male 1/4 inch chord. I hope this helps.

**Q: can i use xvive u3 wireless xlr on this mic?**
A: Yes I do myself.
