What Friends Are Saying

Since swapping out my overheads for the OC818s, my mixes have never had such a defined top end.

Billy Joel was right, Vienna was indeed waiting for me!.

Adrian Schinoff

The most realistic High End I ever heard on a pair of headphones.

The Austrian Audio OC818’s have been a game changer in my studio setup — incredibly detailed, balanced, and perfect for capturing the full character of my drums.

“The Austrian Audio OC818 are - without a doubt - the most versatile mics I’ve ever had in my studios ! Used them already in countless tracking sessions and they never failed to surprise me on so many different instruments and vocals with their unique clarity, incredible body and super smooth top end !”.

The OC mics are absolutely outstanding.

"We're more than happy with the mics! They give us the perfect sound to really get the crowd going, and since we switched to the OD505 capsules, our sound engineer has had a much easier time getting our voices to cut through the massive instrumentals.
