Low-Noise, High-Detail Recording in a Sleek Black Finish
The Neumann TLM 103 (Black Edition) is a premium large-diaphragm condenser microphone designed for vocals, instruments, voiceovers, and broadcast with unmatched clarity and detail. Known for its incredibly low self-noise, transformerless circuitry, and professional sound quality, the TLM 103 delivers the iconic Neumann character in a compact and stylish matte black housing—perfect for modern studios.
Clear Sound with Studio-Grade Versatility
The TLM 103 is equipped with a cardioid large-diaphragm capsule based on Neumann’s legendary U 87 design. It offers a balanced, transparent tone with a subtle presence lift around 5–15 kHz that enhances vocals, acoustic instruments, and spoken word without sounding harsh. With a self-noise level of just 7 dB-A, it’s one of the quietest mics in its class—capturing even the most delicate audio with precision.
It handles sound pressure levels up to 138 dB SPL, making it suitable for louder sources such as guitar amps or drums, as well as soft vocals and ambient textures.
Built to Neumann’s Standards
Designed and manufactured in Germany, the TLM 103 features transformerless circuitry for clean, punchy output and a solid-state design for durability and long-term reliability. Its matte black finish adds a modern aesthetic that blends perfectly into any studio environment, whether in music production, voiceover work, or content creation.
