Solid live vocal mic
I was shopping at a national retail music store, planning to pick up several Shure SM58 mics. The sales associate recommended I give the AKG D5 a try instead, due to its sound quality and high gain before feedback characteristics (a specific monitor problem I was trying to address). I reluctantly picked up 5 D5s and put them through their paces during a series of live outdoor summer concerts in and around Nashville. I must say that I quite pleased with the results. Vocals were very clear and easy to mix even at high stage volumes, the mics were easy to bring up in the monitors after a little EQ tweaking, and the bands I worked with all had positive comments to offer on the sound quality (such recognition is not always easy to get here in Music City). All in all, a very rugged, good ... I was shopping at a national retail music store, planning to pick up several Shure SM58 mics.

All in all, a very rugged, good sounding mic in a very affordable price range. Not sure that I would use them for recording as others have suggested, but certainly a terrific alternative for live venues.

AKG WMS450-D WIRELESS MIC.
Dislike: at 1st the ergonomic shape was different to look at. It took me a couple of times using it to really like it's design. Now I find it easy to hold and to put in and out of the mic. holder. Like: It has a bit more handling noise than I like but the sound quality over the beta 58 wireless that I previously used far surpasses the small amount of handling noise. I found this mic to be very clear and responsive to all vocal ranges. It has a real good cut without being harsh on the ears. I highly recommend this mic for vocal applications! To me it is clearer and cleaner that the Shure Beta 58 and that my friend is saying a lot. For the price.........well you just can't beat it.Dislike: at 1st the ergonomic shape was different to look at. It took me a couple of times using it to really like it's design.

Great mic for recording. Use pop filter or windscreen to prevent plosives
The AKG D5 is an excellent choice for a dynamic microphone for RECORDING but I would have to disagree with using it for live purposes. It has one problem I don't like. The plosives...the plosives will really urk you with this microphone. My pop filter fixed this problem though. However, most people don't have pop filters on mics for live purposes (although they really should make mini pop filters that can hook on to stage mics). That is why I say it is more useful as a home studio microphone than a live recording microphone. I used a focusrite 2i2 usb interface with it. As you may know, focusrite is known for good sounding pre-amps so that may have had something to do with the sound I got. Vocals are crystal clear. Bright enough to cut through the mix but not overly bright or harsh like ...

As you may know, focusrite is known for good sounding pre-amps so that may have had something to do with the sound I got. Vocals are crystal clear. Bright enough to cut through the mix but not overly bright or harsh like the Rode NT1A condenser microphone. For those of you who think that you can't record with a dynamic microphone, you are sadly mistaken. For those of you that think that the frequency response of a dynamic microphone can't be as good as a condenser or a ribbon microphone, this microphone will give you a heck of a suprise. The frequency response on this microphone is 70hz-20,000hz. Below 70hz on vocals is usually low rumbly muddy noises that you don't want anyway. This microphone is very comparable to the frequency response of a condenser or ribbon microphone. It may not SOUND quite the same as a condenser or ribbon microphone but hey...THAT'S THE POINT. It is perfectly fine for recording. Just offers a DIFFERENT sound. A very good sound if I do say so myself. A sound that some artist may actually PREFER. That is why it is absolutely critical to have a mixture of different types of microphones in your studio, dynamic microphones especially. Also, for very loud artist, the sound pressure levels on these things are amazing and the case is the same with this microphone. If you have a powerful singer or loud artist or somebody that does a genre that involves screaming and hollering...be smart. Get some dynamic microphones. GOOD ones. This microphone may not be all that expensive but the sound of it would fool you. Great budget dynamic mic! You should get one of these. One small thing that is worth mentioning is that this microphone is gain hungry like a lot of dynamic microphones. Do yourself a favor. Get yourself a Triton Fethead or a Cloudlifter to boost the amount of clean gain on this thing when using it with whatever mic pre amp you have (that is including usb interfaces too because those also have built in mic pre amps for those who are unaware).

A Powerful Studio Performer!
The AKG D 5 dynamic vocal microphone for lead and backing vocals delivers a powerful sound even on the noisiest stage. Its supercardioid polar pattern ensures maximum gain before feedback. The D 5 stands for a crisp sound that cuts through every mix. For the D 5, AKG employed 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. The D 5's dual shockmount eliminates any kind of mechanical noise for trouble-free live use. The audience will hear nothing but the pristine sound of your voice! Frequency range - 70Hz to 20kHz Sensitivity - 2.6 mV/Pa (-52 dBV) Max. SPL - 147/156dB SPL ...

The AKG D5 sound more open, very similar to condenser microphone. Better high frequency and also more open to sibilance. On stage the supercardioid pattern nicely prevent feedback. in studio i will suggest a pop-filter. Great improvement to any mic lockers. and by experience; hard to get back to sm58 after trying a D5.
