Thanks to digital recording and ultra-clean processing, many engineers find themselves looking for tube microphones to restore a more “analog” sonic character. The Neumann M 147 is a tube microphone designed specifically for 21st century recording systems. Its acoustic design is inspired by the legendary U 47, which revolutionized studio recording in the 1950s with its superior sound quality and is still used daily in top studios around the world. The M 147's head amplifier combines classic tube circuitry with an advanced solid-state output stage for a vintage sound that's both modern and powerful.
The M 147 head grille is more than just a visual expression: It is a slightly more compact version of the iconic U 47 capsule head, partly recognized for its legendary sound. Most importantly, it shares the same sound transducer, the classic K 47 large diaphragm condenser capsule, known for its exceptional combination of warmth and presence. The capsule signal is amplified by a conventional tube circuit using a specially selected subminiature triode. While vintage microphones relied on large, expensive audio transformers for final impedance conversion, the M 147 uses a state-of-the-art transformerless solid-state output stage, which allows for long cables of up to 'at 300 m without transmission losses and guarantees a very direct sound with unrestricted bass response.
