Limited Warranty

Valid only in the United States. AKG Acoustics warrants AKG products against defects in material
or workmanship for a period of two years from the date of original purchase for use, and agrees to
repair or, at our option, replace any defective unit without charge for either parts or labor. Important:
This warranty does not cover damage resulting from accident, misuse or abuse, lack of reasonable
care, the affixing of any attachment not provided with the product, loss of parts or connecting the
product to any but the specified receptacles. This warranty is void unless service or repairs are
performed by an authorized service center. No responsibility is assumed for any special, incidental

or consequential damages. However, the limitation of any right or remedy shall not be effective
where such is prohibited or restricted by law. Simply take or ship your AKG product prepaid to our
service department. Be sure to include your sales slip as proof of purchase date. (We will not repair
transit damage under the no-charge terms of this warranty.) Note: No other warranty, written or oral
is authorized by AKG Acoustics, Inc. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also
have other rights which vary from state to state. Some states do not allow the exclusion or
limitation of incidental or consequential damages or limitation on how long an implied warranty
lasts, so the above exclusions and limitation may not apply to you.

The stereo microphone shall provide dual capsules, each

capable of at least nine operating patterns (omnidirectional,
cardioid, figure-eight, and six intermediate positions) and mutually
adjustable over a total operating angle of 270 degrees. Remote
switching between adjacent patterns shall be silent, thus enabling
pattern changes during recording operations. The microphone shall
provide for switchable 10 dB pre-preamp attenuation and
switchable bass cut of 12 dB/octave below
75 Hz. Each stereo section of the microphone shall provide a

means for precise on-axis alignment at a distance (e. g., by means
of a narrow angle LED). The self noise level of each microphone
section shall be no greater than 14 dB (A-weighted), and the sound
pressure level at which the microphone's total harmonic distortion
reaches 0.5 % shall be no lower than 132 dB. The microphone
shall operate on phantom power, supplied to the remote control
unit, over the nominal range from 9 to 52 volts. The microphone
shall be the AKG Acoustics Model C 426 B.
