The Neumann TLM 103 mt Stereo Set (Cat. No. 008502) features two microphones in a premium black finish, supplied with dedicated EA 1 mt shock mounts and a protective aluminium case. The complete package provides professional recording engineers, producers, musicians, broadcasters, and studios with a reliable solution for high-quality stereo capture and detailed audio reproduction.

Professional Stereo Recording with Neumann Sound Quality

The Neumann TLM 103 mt combines the trusted Neumann microphone engineering heritage with modern transformerless circuitry and a highly detailed large-diaphragm capsule design. Developed for professional recording environments, it delivers a transparent and natural sound character suitable for capturing vocals, instruments, and acoustic spaces with exceptional accuracy.

The large-diaphragm condenser capsule provides excellent sensitivity, fast transient response, and detailed reproduction of subtle musical characteristics. Used as a stereo pair, the two microphones allow engineers to create realistic stereo images with natural depth, clarity, and spatial definition.

Accurate Stereo Capture for Professional Applications

The Neumann TLM 103 mt Stereo Set is designed for recording situations where consistent microphone performance and precise stereo imaging are essential. The dual microphone configuration allows professional users to capture acoustic sources with balanced tonal response and excellent localisation.

This stereo microphone set is suitable for a wide range of recording techniques, including stereo recording of acoustic instruments, ensembles, orchestras, piano, room ambience, and professional studio performances.

Cardioid Large-Diaphragm Condenser Microphone

Each TLM 103 mt microphone features a cardioid polar pattern that focuses on the main sound source while reducing unwanted sound from the rear. This directional design provides improved isolation and controlled recording performance in professional studio environments.

The microphone delivers a clear and direct sound character with enhanced presence in the upper frequency range, helping vocals, speech, and instruments achieve excellent articulation while maintaining the balanced Neumann tonal signature.

Ultra-Low Self-Noise and High SPL Capability

The Neumann TLM 103 mt delivers exceptional technical performance with an equivalent noise level of only 7 dB-A. This extremely low self-noise allows the microphone to capture delicate details, quiet acoustic performances, and dynamic recordings with outstanding transparency.

With a maximum SPL capability of 138 dB, the microphone can also handle louder sources such as percussion, guitar amplifiers, and powerful vocal performances while maintaining accurate and clean sound reproduction.

• Ultra-low self-noise of 7 dB-A
• Maximum SPL handling of 138 dB
• High sensitivity for detailed audio capture
• Transformerless circuitry for transparent signal transmission
• Wide dynamic range for professional recording applications

EA 1 mt Elastic Shock Mounts for Vibration Isolation

The included EA 1 mt elastic shock mounts help reduce unwanted mechanical vibrations and handling noise transmitted through microphone stands. This improves recording clarity by helping isolate the microphone capsule from external physical interference.

The shock mounts are ideal for critical recording applications including studio vocals, stereo instrument recording, broadcast production, and acoustic recording environments where microphone stability is important.
