The Neumann TLM 103 microphone kit includes the TLM 103 microphone The EA 1's elastic boom and durable aluminum case are the best way to access this fantastic, multi-purpose microphone with all the bells and whistles! TLM 103 is the ideal large diaphragm microphone for all professional and semi-professional applications requiring maximum sound quality on a limited budget. Using a proven and reliable transformerless circuit used in many Neumann microphones The TLM 103 provides an unattainable low self-noise level and the highest sound pressure transmission level. Capsule based on that used in the U 87 has a cardioid polar pattern Acoustically well balanced and provides extreme attenuation of rear signals. Applications Thanks to the universal cardioid polar pattern ease of operation, extremely low noise level and, finally, price, TLM 103 is designed for all demanding applications from home recording to professional broadcast and commercial recording studios. Polar Pattern The TLM 103 features a large aperture capsule with a cardioid polar pattern. Focusing on this diagram notation used in most situations The attenuation of unwanted rear sound has been optimized. Off-axis sounds are reproduced naturally and isolation increases. This also results in strong feedback suppression when the microphone is used live or when playback through a loudspeaker is an important factor. Acoustic characteristics The TLM 103 is viewed from the front and is marked with the red Neumann logo on the microphone body. The K 103 large diaphragm capsule is based on the K 87 microphone well known for the U 67/U 87 microphones. The capsule has a flat frequency response up to approximately 5kHz and above this there is a wide flat increase in presence at 4 dB. The large wire mesh grille protects the primer from plosive sounds and effectively prevents pop noise. These characteristics are achieved without the use of corrective resonant effects. Thus The microphone maintains excellent impulse response and reproduces the finest details of music and speech without coloration. Electrical characteristics Self-noise level TLM 103 is only 7 dB-A / 17 , 5 dB CCIR is so reduced that even the weakest signals are reproduced with virtually no interference. Because the TLM 103 is capable of withstanding sound pressure levels up to 138 dB without distortion it provides a dynamic range of 131 dB (A scale). The letters TLM stand for "transformerless microphone". Thanks to TLM technology, the conventional output transformer is replaced by an electronic circuit. Same as traditional transformers it provides good common mode rejection and prevents RF interference which may affect the balanced audio signal. Operational safety The entire internal structure is elastically fastened to reduce any structural noise which may interfere with the operation of the TLM 103. In this case, the capsule is installed on an elastic mount. Frequency range is less than 20Hz therefore even very low bass frequencies are reproduced without coloration. Low frequency extension makes the TLM 103 more sensitive to frame-borne interference and wind noise. For such cases, the EA 1 elastic suspension and the WS 87 windshield are available as accessories.. For vocal work, it is recommended to use PS 15 or PS 20 a pop screens.
