Amazing Mic for the money
AKG D 5 Vocal Microphone
Reviewed by Guil J. on Reverb
This is it. Forget about the SM58s. This mic has better clarity, output and sounds warmer than others in it's class. I've owned many mics and this mic blows them all out. Buy it now!
Great performance vocal mic

This is a great performance vocal mic. I love the clarity, beats SM58 and edges out Senn e835 for the price (at least to my ears).
Great Mic

Great Microphone, delivered on time. Only slight negative is that this one does not have an inside windscreen for it. I have been putting using an external windscreen on it, because it will "pop" on me otherwise.
Clear and responsive; A bit sensitive to plosives

I like the output and clarity of this mic. It offers more gain, sensitivity and dynamics than say an SM58. It does take some time and technique to get used to using it live to avoid pops due to plosives.
Excellent Mike

Sounds great on vocals

Great sound on vocals, if only that on/off switch was recessed like the SM58, this would be the perfect mic. It's a pain to turn on/off.
CLEAR & CRISPY...

Reasonable Quality
AKG D5 S Supercardioid Dynamic Vocal Microphone with On/Off Switch
Reviewed by Ram Nayar on Guitar Center
A powerful but very bright sounding mic. I bought it mainly for male lead vocals thinking that the brightness of the mic would be a good match for bass heavy male lead vocals. Even after adjusting EQ, sound still borders on sharp but annoyingly flat. Not much depth. The mic also runs pretty hot so prone to instant feedback especially when near speakers or monitors so that creates additional challenges in a live environment. Overall not a bad mic but I still prefer the SM58 which is not as powerful (you have to crank it up) but a warmer sounding mic and easier to handle in a live setting. ... More

HI, the microphone works great. thanks kim
lacks clarity
AKG D5 Supercardioid Handheld Dynamic Microphone
Reviewed by hunter on Guitar Center
this is an ok mic. The freq response is pretty expansive but it lacks clarity in the mids-highs...somewhat "muddled". Don't misunderstand me, it's not a bad mic, i was just hoping for more. I'll stick with my atm410...ive been using it for almost two years and it blows the akg away. Overall, I would give the d5 2.5 stars if that was an option.
