I've been using it for about a month, for singining, and the quality of the sound is awesome. The minor glitches are due to the singer, :-) Also very light and easy to adjust to your head.

I found out that I had to buy an adapter to boost the signal from the phantom power. It didn't come with it. I ended up returning and buying the Shure version. The Shure version came with the adapter for phantom power and I was very happy. ## Frequently Bought Together - AKG Pro Audio C520 L Professional Head-Worn Condenser Microphone with Mini XLR Connector - Amazon Basics XLR Male to Female Microphone Cable for Speaker or PA System, All Copper Conductors, 6MM PVC Jacket, 6 Foot, Black - M-Audio AIR 192x4 USB C Audio Interface for Recording, Podcasting, Streaming with Studio Quality Sound, 1 XLR in and Music Production Software --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/8731206-akg-pro-audio-ath63-c520-l-head-worn-condenser-microphone](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/8731206-akg-pro-audio-ath63-c520-l-head-worn-condenser-microphone) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-06-20*
