Neumann TLM 103 MT Stereo Set is a matched stereo pair of large-diaphragm studio microphones from Neumann, designed as a modern evolution of the classic U 87. Delivering a clean, transparent sound with a subtle high-frequency lift, these microphones provide enhanced clarity and definition across vocals and instruments. Thanks to their transformerless circuitry, they feature an exceptionally low self-noise and a wide dynamic range, ensuring pristine audio reproduction.
Each microphone features a cardioid polar pattern, offering excellent isolation of the main sound source while effectively reducing ambient noise and reflections. This makes the TLM 103 MT Stereo Set ideal for capturing vocals, solo instruments, acoustic ensembles, and stereo recordings both in studio environments and on stage.
The sound character of the TLM 103 MT is defined by impressive midrange detail and deep, balanced low-end response. These microphones handle high sound pressure levels with ease, making them suitable for dynamic instruments such as drums, brass, and amplified sources. The robust black metal housings ensure durability, while the included EA 1 spider-style shock mounts provide excellent isolation from vibrations during recording sessions.
The stereo set is delivered in a premium aluminum case with two TLM 103 MT microphones and two EA 1 elastic mounts, making it a professional solution for detailed stereo and high-fidelity recordings.
