The Neumann TLM103 Nickel Stereo Pair is essentially a more modest version of the legendary Neumann U87 microphone, bringing the astounding quality of a Neumann mic into a more affordable price bracket. The U87 is almost unique among microphones in the respect that it is highly regarded at recording virtually all instruments and sources. Acoustic Guitars, Vocals, Amplifiers, Brass and entire Orchestras have all been captured to perfection by the U87 over the years. Such an impressive history has rightfully placed the U87 as a very desirable microphone, but quality of this calibre comes at a price, and that price is usually beyond all but the most well-known and successful studios or producers. Enter the TLM (Transformer-Less Microphone) 103, a large diaphragm, cardioid, condenser microphone with all the build quality of a U87 but at a greatly reduced price. By limiting the polar patterns and other some options found in the U87, Neumann have given the chance of outstanding, world-class recording quality to anyone, with a range to answer all needs.
The Neumann TLM103 Nickel Stereo Pair come with two Shock Mounts in an aluminium case.
