Description
The AKG CM311 XLR is a head-worn condenser microphone built for touring and live sound. It uses the Differoid design, short for differential cardioid, which cancels sound more than a few inches from the mouth, such as floor monitors, instruments on stage and crowd noise.
In controlled field tests the Differoid gave up to 12 dB more gain before feedback than conventional cardioid microphones. The headband and boom adjust to fit the wearer, and the boom runs behind the ear so it does not cover the face. This version has an XLR connection.

- Up to 12 dB more gain before feedback than conventional cardioid microphones in controlled field tests
- Adjustable headband and boom with a behind-the-ear design
