Featuring a universal cardioid pattern, straightforward handling, and extremely low self-noise level, this large diaphragm condenser mic is perfect for home recording, professional broadcasting and commercial recording studios. \u003c\/p\u003e   \u003ch3\u003e   CLASSIC NEUMANN DESIGN \u003c\/h3\u003e   \u003cp\u003e   The TLM 103 utilizes Neumann’s legendary transformerless circuit—found in classic microphones such as the M 149, TLM 49 and TLM 107—to achieve the lowest self-noise of any microphone in its class. The TLM 103 is equipped with Neumann’s coveted K 103 capsule, which is modeled after the K87 capsule used in the U67 and U87 microphones. The K 103 capsule delivers a flat frequency response up to 5 kHz, with a wide, flat 4 dB presence boost on the top-end. \u003c\/p\u003e   \u003ch3\u003e   EVERYTHING YOU WANT, NOTHING YOU DON’T \u003c\/h3\u003e   \u003cp\u003e   The cardioid pickup pattern provides optimum sound rejection—making the TLM 103 ideal for recording vocals in untreated rooms. The large wire mesh grille reduces plosive sounds and prevents pop noises without resorting to corrective resonance effects. Off-axis sounds are rendered naturally while isolation is increased. This also leads to a high feedback suppression when the microphone is used in live situations or when recording in front of studio monitors. Capable of handling signals up to 138 dB SPL, the TLM 103 is perfect for recording loud instruments like guitar cabs, heavy-hitting drummers, and brass. \u003c\/p\u003e   \u003ch3\u003e   TLM LEGACY \u003c\/h3\u003e   \u003cp\u003e   The letters TLM stand for \"transformerless microphone\". With TLM technology, the standard output transformer is replaced by an electronic circuit. As with traditional transformers, this ensures superior common mode rejection, and prevents RF interference that may influence the signal. The Neumann TLM 103 includes an SG 2 clip and woodbox carrying case. \u003c\/p\u003e   \u003ch3\u003e   FEATURES: \u003c\/h3\u003e   \u003cul\u003e       \u003cli\u003e     Large diaphragm condenser microphone with design inspired by the legendary U 87   \u003c\/li\u003e       \u003cli\u003e     K 103 capsule modeled after the K87 capsule used in the U 67 and U 87 microphones   \u003c\/li\u003e       \u003cli\u003e     Broad presence boost, perfect for demanding vocal and instrumental recordings   \u003c\/li\u003e       \u003cli\u003e     Cardioid pickup pattern provides optimum sound rejection—making   \u003c\/li\u003e       \u003cli\u003e     Extremely low self-noise, captures even the faintest nuances   \u003c\/li\u003e     \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Neumann","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44487035453543,"sku":"512787","price":789.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/neumann-tlm-103-condenser-microphone-18724-used_512787_1_0489a57c-a571-4d3a-858b-fc1d0d50a2d1.jpg?v=1787769154","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.com\/products\/neumann-tlm-103-condenser-microphone-18724-used","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
