AKG HSC and HSD Headsets win Radio World's "Cool Stuff" Award at NAB 2006

Radio World honours AKG HSC and HSD headsets with annual award highlighting innovations in radio broadcast products.

AKG Acoustics proudly received Radio World’s 2006 “Cool Stuff” Award for the HSC and HSD application-optimized headsets. The AKG HSC and HSD headsets deliver exceptional audio quality, outstanding comfort and user-friendly features for the demanding broadcast applications.

Each year, a panel of engineers and technical experts choose technologically inventive products to receive the “Cool Stuff” award”.  During the 2006 NAB show, Radio World Editor-in-Chief Paul McLane and Publisher John Casey presented the “Cool Stuff” award to Mike Torlone, AKG’s Studio and Headphone Market Development Manager. “It is quite an honour for our products to be recognized as standouts among the thousands of new products introduced at NAB this week,” said Torlone. “We value our broadcast market end-users and strive to provide the latest technological advances to them, so we are very proud to have our products recognized by Radio World as “Cool Stuff.”

HSC models combine a shock-mounted cardioid condenser microphone with AKG’s TEC Award-winning K 271 Studio circum-aural or the K 171 Studio supra-aural headphones.

HSD models include a shock-mounted, voice-optimized hypercardioid dynamic microphone paired with the same award-winning K 271 Studio and K 171 Studio headphones. All models feature AKG’s well-known headband design for automatic fit and hours of wearing comfort, a detachable cable with locking connector for easy storage and service and intelligent microphone muting control.

Helpful Hints

Frequency response
A flat frequency response has been the main goal of microphone companies for the last three or four decades. In the fifties, mics were so bad that console manufacturers began adding equalizers to each input to compensate. This effort has now paid off to the point were most professional microphones are respectably flat, at least for sounds originating in front. The major exceptions are mics with deliberate emphasis at certain frequencies that are useful for some applications. Problems in frequency response are mostly encountered with sounds originating behind the mic.
