Telefunken Elektroakustik M81 Grey

TELEFUNKEN Elektroakustik M81 GREY – dynamic handheld microphone with a supercardioid polar pattern, smooth frequency response, and condenser-like articulation for studio and stage applications.

The M81 is a versatile microphone built for a wide range of sound sources. Its frequency curve is flatter than that of the M80, with enhanced midrange articulation and reduced proximity effect, making it well-suited for bright vocals, guitar amps, brass, toms, and more. The dynamic capsule features a low-mass diaphragm and custom-wound impedance matching transformer, ensuring detailed transients and excellent off-axis rejection.

Hand-assembled in the USA, the M81 combines rugged construction with outstanding sonic fidelity, offering the clarity of a condenser in a dynamic format. Its supercardioid pattern ensures strong feedback rejection, and its natural, present sound makes it a reliable choice for demanding live and studio environments alike.
