AKG Lyra USB Microphone

Perfect for podcasters, video makers, gamers and musicians

A multi-purpose desktop microphone. The AKG Lyra USB Microphone is perfect for creators, from YouTube videos to podcasts and recording. It features everything you could possibly need to capture crystal-clear sound. The Lyra utilises years of expertise from AKG to deliver stunning audio quality. The ultra-HD audio quality is thanks to the premium-grade components, delivering an ultra-wide frequency response.

When it comes to modern day content, high-quality sound is a must. It can be the difference between someone skimming over your content or creating a fan. The Lyra utilises several unique features to deliver the best possible sound. The cutting-edge AKG Internal Element Overload Prevention ensures you get the best possible recording, no matter what you throw at it. It also features an internal shockmount and an onboard sound diffuser for reducing unwanted noise and optimising your audio performance. It also comes complete with Ableton Live Lite 10 for optimising your recordings.

Four capture modes for the best possible sound

In addition to the high-grade components, the Lyra features a unique condenser capsule array providing you with four capture modes. The four capture modes are comprised of: Front, Front and Back, Tight Stereo and Wide Stereo. You can toggle between these different capsules to capture the best possible sound. No matter the space or the subject, the Lyra will deliver pristine sound that you can trust.

The “Front” setting is perfect for solo recording, capturing everything directly in front of the microphone. The “Front and Back” setting captures sound from the front and rear of the microphone, ideal for recording multiple people at once. The “Tight Stereo” is optimised for solo instrument recordings, truly capturing the subtle nuances with exceptional detail. Finally, the “Wide Stereo” settings are perfect for recording with ambience.

Simple to use with built-in headphone monitoring

The Lyra features everything you could possibly need to get you started recording, straight out of the box. The integrated headphone output allows you to monitor your sound so you can ensure you are getting the best possible take. The simple and intuitive controls mean anyone can pick up the Lyra and start capturing 4K compatible, ultra-HD audio. It is also compatible with a wide range of devices, working seamlessly with Windows, Mac, iOS and Android devices. The plug-and-play design doesn’t require any additional equipment such as audio interfaces or cables.

Vintage style with a modern, portable design

The design of the Lyra is inspired by classic studio microphones, giving the microphone a sleek yet vintage aesthetic. The built-in stand provides cable management, allowing you to position your microphone with ease. It can even be mounted upon a traditional mic stand or boom arm for added versatility. It even has onboard control for controlling the headphone volume and the various capture modes.

AKG K361-BT Bluetooth Headphones

A detailed listening experience

As reference headphones, the K361-BT’s are packed with features that provide an accurate listening experience. To achieve detailed sound, the headphones utilise high-sensitivity, titanium-coated 50mm drivers and oxygen-free copper voice coils. These provides a wide and balanced frequency range that you can rely on to create accurate mixes. Thanks to the 15Hz to 28kHz frequency range, no detail will go unnoticed, ensuring a good mix on K361-BT’s transfers well to other listening devices.

All the benefits of Bluetooth

Bluetooth offers freedom both in the studio and when listening in your spare time. The AKG K361-BTs feature Bluetooth 5.0 combined with advanced battery technology lasting up to 24 hours. This ensures you can manoeuvre around whilst listening without being restrained by wires. When sat close to the audio source, the headphones can operate through the included cable. The hybrid design is also ideal for referencing your mix, ensuring that audio edits translate well to both listening scenarios. For daily use, an integrated microphone can be used to enjoy hands free calls.

AKG reference response

K361-BT headphones are designed to strictly match AKG’s reference response curve, an acoustic target refined over more than a decade of research. This demands an exceptionally high level of accuracy in professional audio applications. This result in a mix you can trust to translate well to other audio devices.

Designed for everyday life

The K361-BT headphones have been designed with the everyday user in mind. Delivering pristine audio whatever the environment, the K361-BTs passed vigorous stress tests to cope with the strain of everyday use. This is achieved using metal reinforcements throughout the headphones, ensuring reliability in even the most demanding conditions.

A modern design with comfort in mind

The over-ear, closed-back design of the K361-BTs is great for isolating audio when listening in noisy environments. The closed back design also helps minimise low frequency loss. The design also helps ensure comfort for long listening sessions, particularly useful in mixing situations. This is achieved using an adjustable headband for the perfect fit every time. Earcups can swivel 90 degrees for one ear monitoring, whilst the lightweight design helps prevent ear fatigue.

A wide range of included accessories

K361-BT accessories include a protective carrying pouch, USB charging cable and detachable audio cables that connect to a range of audio equipment. The cables include a 3m coiled cable, 3m and 1.2m straight cables and a ¼-inch adapter.
