Description

Essential Information About the Neumann TLM 103 Condenser Microphone



  • Large cardioid diaphragm derived from the K67/87 capsule of the legendary U 87 for a silky presence and authoritative midrange.

  • TLM transformerless design for ultra-low self-noise, high output level, and highly precise sound imaging.

  • Modern signature with presence boost above 5 kHz: vocals and solo instruments stand out in the mix effortlessly.

  • Studio-ready with included EA 1 Black elastic suspension and Neumann's distinctive conical head aesthetics.



A Modern Heir to the U 87 Lineage


Introduced in 1997 as a more affordable and contemporary alternative to the iconic U 87, the Neumann TLM 103 has established itself as a "modern classic." By retaining the DNA of the K67/87 capsule while adopting transformerless electronics, it delivers a more direct, clear, and detailed reproduction, perfectly suited for current productions.



Designed for Vocals, Broadcast, and Project Studios


The TLM 103 targets project studios, voice-over, and broadcast applications, but also appeals to major studios for lead vocals, narration, guitar amps, drums, and piano. Its deep yet controlled low-frequency response highlights robust voices, while its definition in the upper spectrum enhances double bass, cello, or bass strings in close-miking situations.



Performance Tailored for Contemporary Recording


Iconic Capsule, Controlled Presence


The large cardioid diaphragm inspired by the U 87 delivers a clear frontal image, with a presence boost above 5 kHz that provides articulation and intelligibility without harshness. The typical Neumann "authoritative" midrange ensures a solid sonic foundation sought after in mixing.



TLM Electronics, Silence and Punch


The TransformerLess Microphone circuit maximizes transparency and dynamics while maintaining extremely low self-noise. The result: a clean signal ready to enter any preamp, with comfortable headroom and excellent compatibility in professional chains.

I use it for my voice in the studio. Microphone lives up to the brand's reputation: very fine, balanced, and detailed. You get your money's worth. No tonal correction is needed on my voice, it's perfect right from the recording. However, it needs to be well aligned, it is very directional while still capturing quite a bit of room. Only complaint, Neumann could at least provide a pouch to protect the microphone from dust. In the bundle box, there is the microphone and the suspension, and that's it, it's a bit stingy...

Received this microphone recently, I just did some tests for my voice, since I use and will almost exclusively use it for voice recordings for audiobooks of my texts and novels. My voice is a low baritone, and I am very satisfied with the sound in the mid and low ranges. No experience yet with the highs, nor with instruments... but I will take the time to provide another feedback if needed...
