Neumann TLM 103

Straight from the presentation box, there's no mistaking the phenomenally high Neumann quality, and I fully expect many, many years of absolute perfection from this mic. Used only for studio vocals, the single sided capsule fits the bill perfectly. The only criticism I have is the rather short barrel, making mounting in a Rycote shock mount slightly awkward (but far from impossible). I would have no hesitation in buying another if the need arose.

Excellent vocal mic for all sorts of voices / styles. Bright but not overly sibilant and has real Neumann character.

Sounds great on many other sound sources like drum room, strings, percussion, wind instruments etc.

Owned for about 4 years and never let me down.

Neumann TLM103, great mic for vocals and acoustic instruments also, build like a tank, very accurate and transparent.
I would recommend it also for deep (baritone and bass) male voices because of clean and detailed low end.
Only con (if I can call it a "con") is that sometimes this mic sound a little bit harsh on sound "s" but you can easily get rid of that using a DeEsser

Standard quality mic. Features just one pettern, but ok. It is a must have. I prefer it over tlm102.

Beautiful Microphone with good material. Great sound and good price.

Absolutely loving my TLM103. The quality is incredible. I used to have a massive plugin chain on vocals and now my projects barely need much.
Loving this for travelling too as it's super compact and easy to pack.

I have been choosing a studio microphone for my studio for a long time. The choice was between RODE K 2, NEUMANN TLM 103. I did not like the Rode k2 for its not clear enough sound. The Neumann 103 has a clearer sound detail, the sound is more expensive.

One of the best bang for the buck Neumann microphones. This is the same microphone that Billie Eilish has used to record songs. Can't recommend it enough.
