EQ MagazineIt did a good job — good enough that I would recommend it for budget studios that are looking for an all-purpose mic to add to their arsenal. The Perception 200 sounds good, can handle serious SPL, and is surprisingly directional, making it perfect for snares, cranked amps, bazookas, etc.

The AKG Acoustics Perception 200 is also known as: Perception200, Perception 200.
