AKG 2955H00500 - MK-HS Studio D, XLR-Jack Connector Cable

AKG 2955H00500 (MK HS Studio D) - Detachable cable for HSD headset with 3-pin XLR output and 6.3 mm stereo jack

The AKG 2955H00500 — MK HS Studio D is the official AKG cable for HSD series headsets (dynamic microphones). It features a 6-pin mini XLR (female) connector at the earcup end that attaches to the AKG headset, and opens into a Y-harness with two connectors for your equipment: a 3-pin XLR male for the microphone signal and a 6.3mm TRS jack for stereo listening. It is a 1.8-2.5m extendable cable, designed for studio, moderation and commentary , which does not require phantom power as it is designed for dynamic capsules in the HSD range.

Its construction is optimized for professional use: a durable black case, strain relief at the transitions, and high-quality connectors for a secure, noise-free connection. Weighing approximately 140 g , it offers the length and robustness needed in booths, production control rooms, or voice studios, while maintaining operator ergonomics.
