The Neumann TLM 103 is a large-diaphragm condenser microphone known for its exceptional sound quality and versatility. It features a cardioid polar pattern, which helps to isolate the sound source while minimizing background noise. This makes it a popular choice for studio recording, particularly for vocals and acoustic instruments. With a frequency response range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz, the TLM 103 captures a wide spectrum of audio frequencies. Its low self-noise level and high sensitivity make it suitable for professional applications, including broadcasting and film production, where clarity and detail are essential.
