Neumann TLM 103 MT Studio Set
The Neumann TLM 103 MT Studio Set delivers the legendary Neumann sound in a compact, modern form — perfect for studio recording, voiceover, and broadcast applications. This studio set includes the TLM 103 large-diaphragm condenser microphone in a matte black finish (MT) and the EA 1 elastic suspension mount for professional-grade vibration isolation and precise microphone placement.
Equipped with a cardioid polar pattern and a large-diaphragm capsule based on the iconic Neumann U 87 design, the TLM 103 offers a beautifully balanced frequency response and remarkable detail. Its extremely low self-noise of just 7 dB-A makes it one of the quietest microphones in its class, ideal for capturing vocals, speech, and acoustic instruments with absolute clarity.
The microphone’s transformerless circuit design ensures a clean and transparent sound, free from coloration, while handling sound pressure levels up to 138 dB. Whether you’re recording intimate vocals, percussion, or orchestral instruments, the TLM 103 MT Studio Set provides the warmth, precision, and realism that define Neumann microphones worldwide.
