Manufacturer's Description from AKG

The AKG C460B is a transformer-coupled preamp from AKG’s “Condenser Modular Series” (CMS), with an extremely low 14 dBa of self-noise. The C 460 B preamp can be used with any of AKG’s wide variety of detachable capsules and inline pads.

A 4-position switch allows selection of four different modes:

No pad/filter.
HPF: -12dB/octave @ 70Hz
HPF: -12dB/octave @ 150Hz
-10dB pad

Note that the pad and HPF cannot be used at the same time. To do so, the detachable A 50 -10dB pad should be used. The A 50 pads the pre-amplified signal, while the built-in pad attenuates the output signal (post-amplification).

About Manufacturer

Around the world recording studios, radio and TV stations, opera houses and famous stages count on AKG products. Internationally known musicians and show-stars have frequently been seen using our high-quality microphones and headphones for many decades. Today AKG is one of the leading manufacturers of high-quality microphones, headphones and wireless-equipment. Listed below is the brief story of one of the most famous brands in the professional audio-world. AKG, founded in Vienna by Dr. Rudolf Goerike and Ernst Pless, soon became one of the biggest players in the world of sound. Today AKG is synonymous with good sound, stands for passion in music providing the highest quality and ongoing innovation in the world of music. The company was founded in 1947 and within months, the first AKG microphones were being used in radio stations, theatres and Jazz-Clubs. The products (the AKG DYN Series) were at that time manufactured by hand by five workers. In 1949, the first AKG headphones came on the market. Then, in the early fifties AKG made a breakthrough with several new products: Totally new technologies like the world’s first high quality condenser microphone, the D 12 with its cardioid characteristics, the world’s first remote-controlled multi-pattern capacitor microphone, the C 12 and the D 36 made acoustic history. One of the first customers of the famous C 12 microphone was the BBC in London.
