Description from manufacturer’s website: “For brass, wind instruments, live applications, and drums. High-output neodymium transducer, rugged construction, highly efficient windscreen, frequency response optimized for intelligibility.
Dynamic microphone for miking instruments and backing vocals in tough night-after-night onstage use. The D 770 features a cardioid polar pattern that is virtually the same for all frequencies (“frequency independent”) and uses a patented AKG Varimotion diaphragm. The D 770 is fitted with a shock absorbing steel wire-mesh inner grill and a wire-mesh outer grill for transducer protection against damage. The outer grill and a layer of special fabric beneath it form a very effective windscreen that will suppress pop and breath noise as well as sibilance. The extended frequency response of the D 770 slightly emphasizes the mid and treble ranges to ensure good intelligibility.”
With stand adapters, zip cases, and original foam-lined boxes. Purchased 2001 in Sydney for $330 and used only at home. Always mounted on stands, never abused.
My musician daughter has emigrated so don’t need them anymore. $130 for both.
