The Neumann TLM 103 is not a microphone made to “show off specifications.” It embodies Neumann’s philosophy of accurate and refined sound capture, where every nuance is reproduced with absolute fidelity. In the upper mid-range segment, the TLM 103 is often compared to models like the AKG C414 or Audio-Technica AT4050. However, what truly sets the TLM 103 apart lies not only in its design, but in the way it reproduces space and tonal character.
