The capsule, derived from that used in the U 87, has a cardioid pattern, is acoustically well-balanced and provides extraordinary attenuation of signals from the rear.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe TLM 103 is available in satin nickel and matte black. Delivery includes an SG 1 metal swivel mount and a wooden jeweler's box.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplications\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eDue to the universal cardioid pattern, straightforward handling, extremely low self-noise level, and finally, the price, the TLM 103 is predestined for all demanding applications from home recording to professional broadcasting and commercial recording studios.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePolar pattern\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe TLM 103 is equipped with a large diaphragm capsule with cardioid pattern. By focusing on this pattern – used in most recording situations – the attenuation of unwanted rear sound has been optimized. Off-axis sounds are rendered naturally while isolation is increased. This also leads to a high feedback suppression when the microphone is used in live situations or where loudspeaker playback is a factor.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAcoustic features\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe TLM 103 is addressed from the front, marked with the red Neumann logo on the microphone body. The K 103 large diaphragm capsule is based on the K 87, well known from the U 67 \/ U 87 microphones.The capsule has a flat frequency response up to about 5 kHz, and above that, a wide flat 4 dB presence boost.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe large wire mesh headgrille protects the capsule from plosive sounds and effectively prevents pop noises. These characteristics are achieved without resorting to corrective resonance effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eTherefore, the microphone maintains an excellent impulse response and reproduces the finest details of music and speech without coloration.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElectrical features\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eWith just 7 dB-A \/ 17.5 dB CCIR the self-noise level of the TLM 103 is so reduced that even the smallest signals are reproduced basically noise-free. As it is capable of handling sound pressure levels up to 138 dB without distortion, the TLM 103 provides a dynamic range of 131 dB (A-weighted).\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe letters TLM stand for \"transformerless microphone\". With TLM technology the usual output transformer is replaced by an electronic circuit. As with traditional transformers, it ensures good common mode rejection, and prevents RF interference that may influence the balanced audio signal.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOperational safety\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe entire internal construction is elastically mounted to attenuate any structure borne noise that could interfere with the TLM 103's operation. Furthermore the capsule is set on an elastic mount. The frequency range reaches below 20 Hz and thus even very low bass signals are reproduced without coloration.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eDue to this low frequency extension, the TLM 103 is more sensitive to structure borne interference and wind noise. For such cases, the elastic suspension EA 1 and the windscreen WS 87 are available as accessories. For close vocal use, the PS 15 or PS 20 a pop screens are recommended. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 691px; height: 485px;\" border=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\n\u003ccol\u003e \u003ccol\u003e \u003c\/colgroup\u003e\r\n\u003ctbody\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003eAcoustical operating principle\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e Pressure gradient transducer \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e Directional pattern\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e Cardioid \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e Frequency range\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e 20 Hz ... 20 kHz \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e Sensitivity at 1 kHz into 1 kohm\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e 23 mV\/Pa \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e Rated impedance\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e 50 ohms \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e Rated load impedance\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e 1 kohms \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e Equivalent noise level, CCIR1)\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e 17.5 dB \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e Equivalent noise level, A-weighted1)\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e 7 dB-A \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e Signal-to-noise ratio, CCIR1) (rel. 94 dB SPL)\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e 76.5 dB \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e Signal-to-noise ratio, A-weighted1) (rel. 94 dB SPL)\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e 87 dB \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e Maximum SPL for THD 0.5%2)\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e 138 dB \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e Maximum output voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e 13 dBu \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e Dynamic range of the microphone amplifier (A-weighted)\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e 131 dB \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e Supply voltage (P48, IEC 61938)\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e 48 V ± 4 V \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e Current consumption (P48, IEC 61938)\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e 3 mA \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e Matching connector\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e XLR3F \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e Weight approx\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e 450 g \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e Diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e 60 mm \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e Length\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e 132 mm \u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\r\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Neumann","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43894125363243,"sku":"NEU-008509","price":1376.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0642\/3019\/5243\/files\/NEU-8509__92118.1682435255.1280.1280.jpg?v=1775682441","url":"https:\/\/www.empirepro.com\/products\/neumann-tlm-103-mt-mono-set","provider":"Empire Pro","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
