Telefunken M80 Black Dynamic Microphone
The Telefunken M80 Black is a stylish variation of Telefunken’s acclaimed M80 Standard dynamic microphone, featuring an all-black finish for a sleek, modern look on stage or in the studio. Designed to deliver condenser-like clarity with the durability of a dynamic mic, the M80 Black combines premium performance with a bold aesthetic that stands out in any professional audio setup.
Internally identical to the standard M80, this microphone features a low-mass diaphragm and a custom-wound impedance-matching transformer, providing a detailed, open sound with tight low-end, present midrange, and crisp highs. It offers exceptional articulation, making it a top choice for lead vocals, snare drums, guitar amps, and podcast or broadcast use.
The cardioid polar pattern helps to reduce unwanted bleed and background noise, making the M80 Black an excellent option for both live and controlled studio environments. Its high SPL handling and gain-before-feedback capabilities ensure it performs exceptionally well even on loud stages.
Built with rugged construction and hand-assembled in the USA, the Telefunken M80 Black is ready for the demands of touring, recording, and broadcasting — all while delivering studio-grade sound in a compact, eye-catching package.
